Film Adaptation of John Guy's Biography of Mary Queen of Scots

We are excited to announce that John Guy’s award-winning biography, My Heart is My Own: The Life of Mary Queen of Scots has been made into a film and will be released in the UK in January.

Beau Willimon, whose previous credits include House of Cards and The Ides of March, has adapted John Guy’s book into a screen play narrating the struggle for power between Mary and her cousin, Elizabeth I. The film stars Oscar-nominees Saoirse Ronan, playing the titular Queen, and Margot Robbie as Elizabeth, alongside David Tennant, Gemma Chan and Adrian Lester.
