“Fans usually rate things higher than critics, even bad shows, and the point being, a 1% audience score seems borderline mathematically impossible, even with the controversy the film has attracted,” a report by Forbes stated. It has now reached 2% score on the portal.

The Netflix show, which premiered on May 10, landed in controversies for casting a Black (Adele James) woman to play the Egyptian Queen.

Fans also criticized Queen Cleopatra, writing, “the mere fact of being classified as a documentary and not providing a real image attached to what science says, causes it to deserve the lowest rating.”

Queen Cleopatra is currently streaming on Netflix.
