'Outlander's Sam Heughan to star in 'Macbeth' stage production

1 of 3 | Sam Heughan is set to star in "Macbeth" beginning in October. File Photo by Jim Ruymen/UPI | License Photo June 3 (UPI) -- Outlander actor Sam Heughan will make his Royal Shakespeare Company debut in Macbeth opposite The Crown actress Lia Williams. Heughan, 45, described his upcoming role as a "full circle" moment on Instagram Tuesday. "At age 18, standing on the main stage of the Royal Lyceum Edinburgh, playing 'spear-carrier number 2,' (essentially a glorified extra) in a production of Macbeth, I could only dream of one day playing the infamous title character," he said. "It feels full circle to be returning to the stage, after over a decade working primarily in television and film." He portrayed Jamie Fraser opposite Caitriona Balfe on Outlander for over a decade. The show premiered on Starz in 2014. Heughan told Deadline that after wrapping the show's finale, he was on the lookout for an exciting role. "I've been doing Outlander for 11 years, and obviously it was brilliant, but I wanted something else. And I went to the RSC to see Edward II there, and I just felt that buzz. I sat in the auditorium and I felt that excitement, sort of the churn in my stomach as the lights went down and I was like, 'Yeah, this is the drug I'm looking for,'" he said. "And it's terrifying. And I think that's a good thing to be scared again." Performances begin Oct. 9 at Stratford-upon-Avon's The Other Place, and wind down Dec. 6. "Not only is Macbeth my favorite Shakespeare play: intense, immediate and unsettling, it also happens to be famously Scottish. The RSC has always been at the pinnacle of my ambition and I feel deeply honored and thankful to be working alongside some enormously talented and creative people," he said on Instagram. "The Other Place is the perfect space to create an intense, intimate production and, like lady M, we will be calling upon the spirits of the RSC's highly acclaimed past productions for their blessing."

Nick Offerman Tears Into Michael Flynn's Son

Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. Actor Nick Offerman clapped back at Michael Flynn Jr. after the son of retired U.S. Army Lieutenant General Michael Flynn shared an edited Parks and Recreation clip that made it seem like Ron Swanson, Offerman's character on show, was throwing a pride flag into the garbage. In response to a request for comment for this article, Flynn sent three laughing emoji. Newsweek has contacted a representative for Offerman for comment via email outside regular working hours. Why It Matters Pride Month is celebrated in June—coinciding with the anniversary of the 1969 Stonewall Riots, a series of protests for gay liberation. This year's Pride Month comes at a critical time for LGBTQIA+ people as Republican lawmakers in several states move to end same-sex marriage and the Trump administration has taken multiple steps to unravel protections for transgender Americans. The State Department has also enacted a "one flag policy," banning U.S. Embassies and overseas missions from flying pride flags.

A composite image showing a "Love is Love" flag at Bangkok's pride parade on June 1 and Nick Offerman at the U.S. premiere of "Mission: Impossible—The Final Reckoning" at Lincoln Center Plaza in New York on May 18. More/for Paramount Pictures What To Know Flynn, whose father served as U.S. national security adviser for 22 days before resigning from the first Trump administration, posted the clip on X, formerly Twitter, on June 1. He wrote in the caption, "Just wanted to post how I feel about 'pride' month." The clip, from the fourth season of Parks and Recreation, originally showed Swanson furiously throwing his computer into the trash after learning about online invasions into his privacy. The edited clip includes a rainbow flag in place of the computer. Offerman wrote in response to Flynn's post, "Ron was best man at a gay wedding you dumb f--k. #HappyPride." In "One Last Ride," the series finale, Swanson serves as the best man in a wedding between two of the show's smaller roles: Typhoon (Rodney To), who is Swanson's hairdresser, and Craig (Billy Eichner). Swanson, a committed libertarian, is known for his grumpiness and biting one-liners. However, the character, like the actor, is supportive of the queer community. Offerman's comment was met with a mixed response online, with some social media users applauding his quick comeback, while others criticized him. What People Are Saying X user @OzymandiasEsq, responding to Offerman in a post viewed 54,000 times as of press time, wrote: "I always love when a creator/writer/actor slams someone for misusing their character." User @RidgeburyCap, responding to Offerman in a post viewed 37,000 times, wrote: "No one cares what the actor thinks lol." What Happens Next Cities across the U.S. have organized events and celebrations for Pride Month, with the annual WorldPride set to take place in Washington, D.C., this year. Pride marches and parades are also expected in cities such as New York, Los Angeles and Chicago.
