The Young Pope Synopsis
Lenny Belardo, a.k.a. Pope Pius XIII, is the first American pope and the youngest ever elected by the College of Cardinals. Two-time Oscar(R)-nominee Jude Law stars in this 10-episode limited series about this radical new Pope who eschews the counsel of Vatican elders, enlists the woman who raised him (Oscar(R)-winner Diane Keaton) to be his chief confidante and announces a series of hardline initiatives that confound the Vatican status quo. Over the course of the season, flashbacks and revelations paint a complicated portrait of Lenny whose strict adherence to Catholic dogma is belied by flights of fancy and crises of faith--not to mention an unusual and possibly inappropriate relationship with the wife of a Swiss Guard officer.
