Neil Zeiger spoke to HeyUGuys at the Glenrothan UK Premiere at the Ham Yard Hotel, London, offering a rare and revealing producer's perspective on how a passion project rooted in decades of friendship between himself, director Brian Cox and writer David Ashton finally made its way to the screen. In a generous and personal interview, Zeiger — who has known Cox for fifty years — recalled the moment he knew Brian was ready to direct, the inspired casting of young Alexandra Wilkie, and why bringing this particular story about Scotland, family and forgiveness to the screen felt, for everyone involved, like a full circle moment.
Interviews for Glenrothan at the UK Premiere. The film stars Alan Cumming,
Brian Cox, Shirley Henderson and Alexandra Shipp, it was written by David Ashton and Jeff Murphy and directed by Brian Cox.
Colin Hart and Abigail Shii ask the questions.
Plot: After 35 years in Chicago, Donal (Alan Cumming) reluctantly returns to
the Scottish Highlands to reconcile with his estranged older brother Sandy (Brian Cox), who needs him to take over the family's whisky distillery or be forced to sell. Their reunion compels both brothers to confront the violence and grief that shattered their family on the day of their mother's funeral — and reckon with whether the wounds of the past can ever truly heal.
Glenrothan will be released in cinemas on 17th April 2026.
