Game of Thrones veteran Iain Glen will appear in the upcoming Filipino biographical historical film Quezon with the lead actor Jericho Rosales.

Glen is known for his role as Jorah Mormont in GOT. In this upcoming Filipino movie, he will portray the role of Leonard Wood, the United States Army major who served as Governor-General of the Philippines. 

Who Is Major Leonard Wood?

He held the positions of Chief of Staff of the United States Army, Military Governor of Cuba, and Governor-General of the Philippines. He played a crucial role in Quezon’s administration journey from the United States to Philippine Independence. Jerrold Tarog, the Quezon director and co-writer, said Glen’s casting as Major Wood breathes more life into Quezon.

Quezon delves into the life story of Manuel L. Quezon, who became the President of the Commonwealth of the Philippines from 1935 to 1944. Before he became President, Quezon was a lawyer and soldier. The film production will begin in March, and its release date has yet to be announced.
