The English

2022

The English (2022) is a revisionist Western, a television series set in 1890 and starring Emily Blunt as Lady Cornelia Locke and Chaske Spencer as Eli Whipp.

Cornelia Locke has come to America seeking revenge on the man she believes is responsible for the death of her 14-year-old son. Along the way, she meets Eli Whipp, an ex-US cavalry man and member of the Pawnee Nation.

Locke and Whipp rescue the 2 orphaned children of a Mennonite couple who have been slaughtered, and Locke delivers the children to the larger Mennonite group.

Locke and Whipp also take care of another orphaned boy, White Moon. After a while they entrust White Moon to a travelling surgeon who aspires to establishing a Wild West Show.

13 years later and back in England, Cornelia Locke gets to see White Moon again as he now stars in the touring Wild West Show.
