'Game of Thrones' star Rose Leslie has been roped in for a key role in action-drama 'The Last Druid'. Andreas Pietschmann (Nuremberg), and Daniel Zovatto (Don't Breathe) have also come on board for the project, which already stars Oscar winner Russell Crowe.

The movie will tell the story of a Roman Emperor who discovers a secluded Druid stronghold in the mountains of Caledonia. A peaceful Celtic elder (Crowe) must take up arms to protect his family and people from annihilation, as per Deadline.

William Eubank (Paranormal Activity: Next of Kin) is directing from a script by Eubank, Phil Gawthorne (Modern Life is Rubbish) and Carlyle Eubank (Muzzle)

The film is being produced by Adrian Guerra (Buried), Brian Kavanaugh-Jones (Longlegs), Fred Berger (La La Land) and Ben Pugh (The Courier), and executive-produced by Nuria Valls, Xavier Parache, AJ Bourscheid, Brandon Millan, Sam Wasson, George Hsieh and Stuart Ford.

As Deadline previously revealed, Stuart Ford's AGC has pre-sold the film in multiple international markets, including to Amazon for a handful of territories. The company will continue dealmaking on the film at this week's Cannes market.
