“The Last Druid” adds Drew McIntyre, Stacy Clausen and others as Russell Crowe action film continues production in Spain

Production for Russell Crowe’s action film The Last Druid is underway in Spain, with pro wrestler Drew McIntyre, Sundance breakout Stacy Clausen, Spanish actor Pablo Derqui, and Tennyson Crowe joining the cast, according to a report from Deadline.

2 min readEditor-approved Apex article

Russell Crowe’s action film The Last Druid is in production in Spain, and the project has added several new cast members, Deadline reported June 15.

Drew McIntyre, the Scottish professional wrestler, is joining the movie, marking another screen role as he expands beyond professional wrestling. The casting announcement also includes Stacy Clausen, described as the star of Sundance breakout Leviticus.

The film’s ensemble will further include veteran Spanish actor Pablo Derqui, who Deadline identified with the film Julia’s Eyes. The production has also cast Tennyson Crowe, Russell Crowe’s son, with Deadline saying it will be his second acting role.

Deadline’s report characterizes The Last Druid as an action picture, and places filming on location in Spain. The report does not specify particular filming locations within the country or the portion of production schedule already completed.

In addition to the announced cast, Deadline’s report frames the project as part of Crowe’s ongoing work in action-oriented feature films. With the additional performers now on board, the production is positioned to move forward with both principal filming and other on-location work while new cast members integrate into the schedule.

Because the reporting is based on casting and production status, several typical production details, such as the exact start and end dates of filming in Spain, the film’s full supporting cast, and the planned release timeline, were not included in the material provided.

The next confirmed step is continued filming in Spain as the cast assembles on set. Any further casting updates, plot specifics, or distribution and release announcements would follow as production progresses and schedules are finalized.

Why It Matters

  • On-location film work can affect local communities and services in the filming region, including transportation, staffing needs, and use of public and private spaces while production is underway.
  • Casting announcements can influence scheduling, including the time required for principal filming scenes that involve newly added performers.
  • For family audiences and wider viewers, the addition of recognizable performers such as McIntyre and Clausen may shape how the film is marketed and how audiences locate it when it reaches distribution.
  • Because the casting report does not include release timing or full production details, the most immediate public impact is limited to confirmed on-site production activity in Spain and the formal expansion of the cast.
