"Tudors" Get Third Season

"The Tudors" just kicked off its second season, but Showtime believes there is much more to this racy story.

The network announced that the drama will back for a third season, says Zap2it. Production will begin June 16 in Ireland, with a 2009 premiere in mind.

"'The Tudors' is now a fixture for us at Showtime, and we're on our way to completing the entire saga of all six wives of Henry VIII," says Robert Greenblatt, head of Showtime.

Season 3 will follow Henry VIII (Jonathan Rhys Meyers) and his experiences with wife number 3 Jane Seymour (Anita Briem). This season, he is with Anne Boleyn (Natalie Dormer).

"The Tudors" airs every Sunday at 9:00 p.m. (EST) on Showtime. -- Rachel Cericola
