Lord Macbeth, the Thane of Glamis and quickly the Thane of Cawdor, is the title character and main protagonist in William Shakespeare's Macbeth. The character is loosely based on the historical king Macbeth of Scotland and is derived largely from the account in Holinshed's Chronicles (1577), a compilation of British history.
Orson Welles (Macbeth) and Jeanette Nolan (Lady Macbeth) in Welles's 1948 film adaptation of the play, Macbeth.
