Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Stuart Brennan reportedly did his own wolf stunts in costume, making this possibly the only Roman epic where the director is also the monster.
The film taps into genuine Scottish folklore of 'wulvers' — wolf-like creatures said to inhabit Shetland, though this version is decidedly more Roman-snacking.
