Adrian Lester, Martin Compston, Jack Lowden, James McArdle, Joe Alwyn and Director Josie Rourke talk about taking on their roles in Mary Queen of Scots in which Saoirse Ronan plays Mary Stuart and Margot Robbie plays Queen Elizabeth I. The film charts the life of Mary Stuart (Saoirse Ronan) who became Queen of France at aged 16 before returning to Scotland to reclaim her throne. However, both Scotland and England are under the rule of Elizabeth I (Margot Robbie) and soon the two become rivals for the throne. Here, we chat to some of the male cast who surround the two leads: Martin Compston, Adrian Lester, Jack Lowden, Joe Alwyn and James McArdle make up some of those who both advise the two as they become closer and closer to war. In addition, we chatted to director Josie Rourke, who makes her directorial feature debut with the film and discuss the challenges in bringing it to the screen, as well as her "dynamic duo" at the helm of the film. Plot: Mary Stuart's attempt to overthrow her cousin Elizabeth I, Queen of England, finds her condemned to years of imprisonment before facing execution. The interviews are conducted by Scott Davis.
