Shardlake confirms ITV release date after airing CJ Sansom adaptation on Disney Plus
Following its Disney Plus premiere, Shardlake is coming to ITV.
ITV has confirmed its summer schedule, and it includes an adaptation that may already be familiar to some viewers.
CJ Sansom's Shardlake was brought to life by Disney Plus last year, and the very same episodes are making their way to ITV1 from Monday 9th June.
The adaptation features a stellar cast including Sean Bean as Thomas Cromwell and Arthur Hughes as Matthew Shardlake, a 16th-century lawyer tasked with investigating a murder at a monastery.
He's not alone, however. His cocky assistant – or possibly Cromwell's spy – Jack Barak (Anthony Boyle) is there to aid him.
A tense mystery unfolds across four episodes, with ITV set to air them weekly.
Variety reported in January 2025 that Disney Plus wouldn't continue the series, despite there being plenty of CJ Sansom books to adapt and it receiving favourable reviews, including our very own four-star rating.
Perhaps they'll get their chance on ITV.
