Cork-born Jonathan Rhys Meyers leads the cast of the runaway TV drama series 'The Tudors' as they prepare for the shooting of the third series at Wicklow’s Ardmore Studios in June-October for a 2009 release.

It seems Jonathan Rhys Meyers has had a humour by-pass. Though he’s appeared in 'Bend It Like Beckham' and Woody Allen’s 'Match Point', he says he has no wish to ever take on a funny role again.
