For seven centuries, the English jealously guarded the Stone of Destiny (a beloved symbol of Scottish pride) in order to keep Scotland under their control, but in 1950, Ian Hamilton had a dream of Scottish independence…
The Stone of Destiny is the story of Hamilton (Charlie Cox – Stardust, Casanova) and three young Glaswegian students who tried to outwit an entire nation of police as they went after the fabled Stone of Scone, hidden deep within the bowels of Westminster Abbey. The exuberance and naivety of youth drives a story packed with humour, emotion, action and all the suspense of one of the most infamous heists ever attempted.
Starring as Hamilton is Charlie Cox (Cassanova, Stardust). Joining Cox in the star studded cast are Kate Mara (Iron Man 2, Shooter), Billy Boyd (Lord Of The Rings), Robert Carlyle (The Full Monty), Peter Mullan (Trainspotting) and Academy Award-winning actress Brenda Fricker (My Left Foot)
