He became one of the King's prominent male lovers, and then used the power to secure a position as one of his most trusted advisors in court.
Mary & George follows his rise to power, which was orchestrated by his scheming mum.
In the trailer the Countess of Buckingham, played by Julianne Moore, can be heard referring to her son as "subject to my rule".
When the young man asks his mother if she has a wife planned out for him, she cheekily hints at taking advantage of the King's sexuality instead.
