If you follow Steven Cree on Twitter, you’ll know he has a new movie based on real Scottish history. The Outlaw King trailer is now out, giving you a first look at Chris Pine as Robert the Bruce.
Steven Cree isn’t quiet about his upcoming projects. One that he’s been tweeting a lot about is Outlaw King, a movie based on the life of Robert the Bruce, the man who would lead the Scots to win the Battle of Bannockburn. The Outlaw King trailer is now out, giving you a first look at Chris Pine in the role.
If you look closely, you’ll notice some of the settings. One of those is definitely Doune Castle, which is used as Castle Leoch in Outlander and was one of the filming locations for the Netflix Original movie.

Cree doesn’t make a major appearance in the movie, but he plays Seton. It depends on how historically accurate this movie is, but this may be Christopher Seton, who would become Robert the Bruce’s brother-in-law.
Outlaw King will see the fight for Scotland. When Robert’s family and country are in trouble, he heads off to fight the English armies with a ragtag band of brothers. Soon, he finds himself labeled a traitor, putting everyone he cares about at risk. This is all set in one year, the year that would see him become the King of Scotland and gain the support of the people.
The movie will be released on Netflix and in select theaters on November 9. It’s just after the Outlander premiere, just as you get into the Scottish mood, offering a perfect way to continue the feeling before the second episode.
