Trailer drops for motion picture which filmed in Glasgow
I SWEAR, a Studiocanal production, tells the true story of John Davidson, an active campaigner for people with tourettes after being diagnosed with the condition at just 15.
During production, film crews took to the streets in Glasgow during July and August 2024 to
Glasgow City Council has permitted film crews to film in Renfield Lane, as we previously reported, for the movie.
The film takes you through the true story of John Davidson from Galashiels faced and overcame many hardships from adolescence and early adulthood as a result of what was a little-known and entirely misunderstood condition in 1980s Britain.
He has since claimed an MBE for his campaigning on tourettes awareness and is now the centre of the new film set to appear on cinema screens on October 15, 2025.
Robert Aramayo, known for his roles as Eddard Stark in the sixth and seventh series of HBO series Game of Thrones, as well as featuring in Netflix's psychological thriller miniseries Behind Her Eyes, will take on the role of Davidson.
Other famous Scottish actors involved in the project include Peter Mullan and Shirley Henderson.
The motion picture was shot across various locations in the West of Scotland last year, including Clydebank.
The Town Hall was surrounded by a camera crew, equipment, and trucks as the filming for the British drama got underway.
