Exclusive: Aaron Taylor-Johnson is being set to co-star as James Douglas in Outlaw King, the David Mackenzie-directed Netflix feature that stars Chris Pine as Robert the Bruce in the War for Scottish Independence. Pine reunites with his Hell or High Water helmer in a package Netflix landed in April for its burgeoning feature film slate. Douglas is a storied figure in Scottish history, and from what I’m reading, it’s hard to imagine Robert the Bruce would have succeeded in…...

A Hell or High Water reunion may be making its way to Netflix: Deadline reports that the studio’s finalizing a deal for director David Mackenzie to helm the epic period drama Outlaw King, which Chris Pine and Ben Foster would be headlining.
Outlaw King will focus on Robert the Bruce, the king who led Scotland during the First War of Scottish Independence against England. The historical figure was previously featured in Mel Gibson’s Braveheart, as played by Angus Macfadyen. Pine is expected to play the Scottish king, while Foster would play James Douglas, a knight who became the king’s chief adviser.
Braveheart portrayed Robert the Bruce as a bit of a pushover who gets tricked by his leprosy-ridden father into betraying Gibson’s William Wallace. Outlaw King will seek to restore the king to the national hero he’s still regarded as in Scotland today. Per Deadline,...

The trio from one of our favorite movies of 2016 is reuniting. According to The Hollywood Reporter, Hell Or High Water director David Mackenzie is likely going to team once again with actors Ben Foster and Chris Pine. But this time, it looks like they’re going from West Texas to Scotland: The three are in negotiations to make a film for Netflix about 14th-century Scottish rebel leader Robert The Bruce called Outlaw King. (These guys like their outlaws, royal or otherwise.) Mackenzie wrote the script, Pine is in discussions to star as the eponymous character, and Foster is in line to play knight James Douglas. If it all works out, the movie will begin shooting in August.

Chris Pine could very well be teaming up with director David Mackenzie again who is also writing the script and trying to persuade Pine’s on screen Hell or High Water Brother, Ben Foster to jump on board the good ship Outlaw King which looks at the story of former King of the Scots, Robert The Bruce.

Chris Pine and Ben Foster are going to team back up with Hell or High Water director David Mackenzie for an awesome sounding new movie called Outlaw King. This is a period epic that will tell the true story of the Scottish king, Robert The Bruce, who led his country to freedom from English rule in the early 14th century.
It sounds to me like the story will pick up where Mel Gibson's Braveheart left off as Robert The Bruce rushes into battle to engage in war with the English. He fought alongside William Wallace in the revolt against Edward I of England. Braveheart is one of my favorite movies of all time and I've always found the history of Scotland interesting so I'm completely sold on this film!

From the sun-kissed wild west to the rolling hills of the Scottish Highlands, Deadline brings word today that writer-director David Mackenzie, Chris Pine and Ben Foster – the three driving forces behind last year’s Oscar-nominated hit Hell or High Water – have entered talks to spearhead Netflix’s sweeping period drama, Outlaw King.
It’s a package bursting with cinematic promise, and word of those negotiations come just as Scott Stuber assumes the role of Netflix’s head of feature films. Rooted in a similar time period as that of Mel Gibson’s seminal Braveheart, Outlaw King presents Robert the Bruce through a slightly different lens, as he leads his country to freedom from the oppressive rule of England. Chris Pine is reportedly poised to take up arms as the former Scottish king, with Ben Foster negotiating a deal to play James Douglas, the “Scottish knight who became the king’s chief adviser.

We shot Fury Road for eight months… that’s a lot. Every day in the heat and the dust, doing these stunts, it’s very wearing. We’ve got two more planned, but at some point in the future.”
