Scottish actor Iain Glen shared a sneak peek at his role as Leonard Wood in the Quezon biopic.

The Game of Thrones star took to Instagram on March 29 to give a behind-the-scenes look at him on the set of the Jerrold Tarog film. 

“Shooting a film [Quezon] in the Philippines, playing their last Governor General Leonard Wood, as the country sought independence from American rule," he wrote in the caption. "Really wonderful cast and crew. What an adventure. More to follow."

The photos he shared include him wearing an all-white vest suit in an old school home. In another picture, the Scottish actor donned a military uniform for an on location shoot.

His co-stars, Jericho Rosales, Mon Confiado, and Benjamin Alves, expressed their excitement in the comments section of Iain's post.

“Cheers to more,” Jericho said.

“An honor, sir,” Benjamin wrote

“Honored and Privileged! You are an amazing actor!” Mon commented.

Mon, who will play Emilio Aguinaldo, posted a photo of him and Iain on March 20 in which he called his co-star "the greatest Scottish theatre actor of his generation.”

Iain will portray Leonard Wood, who was appointed governor-general of the Philippines from 1921 to 1927 during the American occupation.

Quezon is the third and final film of the trilogy, following Heneral Luna and Goyo: Ang Batang Heneral. It's set to premiere this 2025.

Apart from Game of Thrones, Iain is known for his roles in Lara Croft: Tomb Raider, The Rig, Silo, Resident Evil movies, and Castlevania: Nocturne.
