The series, which will have the same title, is coming from production company Drama Republic (Riot Women), and will explore the execution of Henry VIII’s second wife, Anne Boleyn, through the eyes of working class women in Tudor England.
Pickett, who has previously written for shows including How to Get to Heaven from Belfast and The Great, said in a statement that she's "so excited and thrilled to be working with HBO, the BBC and Drama Republic on 1536" and feels "very lucky to have them champion this story so fiercely".
Manners will also serve as an executive producer alongside Jude Liknaitzky, Roanna Benn, Rebecca de Souza and Chloe Beeson for Drama Republic and Anna Ferguson for the BBC.
Pickett added: “And to be collaborating with the brilliantly talented Molly Manners is a dream come true. I can’t wait to bring this story about power, patriarchy and friendship to a new audience.”
HBO’s head of drama Francesca Orsi said: “We’re elated to partner with Ava Pickett and the BBC to bring her first television series to life. Ava is an immense talent, and we couldn’t be more excited and honoured to work with her on transforming her singular vision of ‘1536’ from stage to screen.”
