In 2024, a new six-part series titled Wolf Hall: The Mirror and the Light returns to television, focusing on the final part of Hilary Mantel's Thomas Cromwell trilogy.

The story picks up after the beheading of Anne Boleyn and follows the political machinations of Henry VIII's court. Phillips, who is now in her mid-thirties, has built a diverse acting portfolio since her initial debut. Her previous roles in acclaimed series such as War & Peace, The Crown, and Peaky Blinders have added to her experience and depth as an actress in this significant role.
