Susanne Bier In Talks To Direct MARY QUEEN OF SCOTS

Mary’s life story is wondrously complex, but her demise began when her marriage to her cousin ended in his murder. She then wed the man many believed responsible for her late husband’s murder, resulting in an uprising against the couple. Mary was forced to abdicate her throne to her infant son, and when her attempt to gain control once again failed she fled to the protection of her cousin, Queen Elizabeth I. As Mary had once claimed to be “the rightful queen” of England (and given that many Catholics embraced this view), Elizabeth quickly had Mary imprisoned and ultimately executed.Working Title’s film should not be confused with an upcoming Swiss drama film MARY Queen of Scots directed by Thomas Imbach that will premiere at the upcoming Toronto International Film Festival. The young French actress Camille Rutherford (Low Life) stars as the doomed monarch in this sumptuous historical drama. Check it out below. [jwplayer mediaid=”166763″]
