The upcoming historical feature Catherine of Alexandria is prepping to start at Pinewood Studios UK.

Following the recent discovery of the 4th Century diary of ‘Saint Catherine’, the film will tell the story of her torture on a wheel of spikes at the hands of the Roman despot Maximus in 329 AD.

Saint Catherine of Alexandria, also known as Saint Catherine of the Wheel and Great Martyr Saint Catherine, is claimed to have been a scholar in the early 4th century.

What is told of her life is composed of legends, that she was the daughter of ‘Costus’, governor of Alexandria and announced to her parents one day that she would only marry someone who surpassed her in everything, such that “His beauty was more radiant than the shining of the sun, His wisdom governed all creation, and His riches were spread throughout all the world.”

She visited the Roman Emperor and attempted to convince him of the error of persecuting Christians, succeeding in converting his wife the Empress. But after pagan wisemen were sent by the Emperor to dispute with her, only to convert as well, they were killed and she was placed in prison.

When people who visited her in jail also coverted as well, she was condemned to death on the breaking wheel instrument of torture.

When the wheel broke when she touched it, she was beheaded.

The ‘Catherine Wheel’ fireworks, symbolizes that instrument of torture designed to break her prior to execution.

Cast will include Peter OÂ’Toole and Steven Berkoff.
