Saoirse Ronan & Margot Robbie Are Nearly Unrecognizable for 'Mary Queen of Scots' Posters!

Saoirse Ronan (as Mary Stuart) and Margot Robbie (As Elizabeth I) as nearly unrecognizable in the character posters for Mary Queen of Scots!

Saoirse and Margot lead the cast, which also includes Jack Lowden, Joe Alwyn, David Tennant, and Guy Pearce.

The film explores the turbulent life of the charismatic Mary Stuart (Ronan). Queen of France at 16 and widowed at 18, Mary defies pressure to remarry. Instead, she returns to her native Scotland to reclaim her rightful throne. But Scotland and England fall under the rule of the compelling Elizabeth I (Robbie). Each young Queen beholds her “sister” in fear and fascination. Rivals in power and in love, and female regents in a masculine world, the two must decide how to play the game of marriage versus independence. Determined to rule as much more than a figurehead, Mary asserts her claim to the English throne, threatening Elizabeth’s sovereignty. Betrayal, rebellion, and conspiracies within each court imperil both thrones – and change the course of history.

The film will play in select theaters on December 7, 2018.
