Rise of Cobra (2009 Movie)
James McCullen IX was lord of the McCullen Clan from 1633 to 1641. In 1641, he was captured and punished by the French for selling arms to the enemies of King Louis XIII, even though he also sold weapons to the French.

The proud, arrogant McCullen scorned his captors for the hypocrisy of their politics and the narrow scope of their comprehension. For his punishment, his face was covered with a red-hot iron mask. Rather than a reminder of dishonor, this mask became a treasured symbol of the power wielded by the Clan McCullen.

He also designed and tested military submarines in the English Channel, presumably after being masked.
