Russell Crowe and Ridley Scott reunite next month for their new project together Robin Hood, it looks so much better than Prince of Thieves!
Yes the Gladiator pair are back as they bring us a re-telling of the famous story, which sees Cate Blanchett, Mark Strong, Scott Grimes and William Hurt all join the cast list.
Robin Hood chronicles the life of an expert archer, previously interested only in self-preservation, from his service in King Richards army against the French.
Upon Richards death, Robin travels to Nottingham, a town suffering from the corruption of a despotic sheriff and crippling taxation, where he falls for the spirited widow Lady Marian (Oscar® winner Cate Blanchett), a woman skeptical of the identity and motivations of this crusader from the forest.
Hoping to earn the hand of Maid Marian and salvage the village, Robin assembles a gang whose lethal mercenary skills are matched only by its appetite for life. Together, they begin preying on the indulgent upper class to correct injustices under the sheriff.
With their country weakened from decades of war, embattled from the ineffective rule of the new king and vulnerable to insurgencies from within and threats from afar, Robin and his men heed a call to ever greater adventure.
This unlikeliest of heroes and his allies set off to protect their country from slipping into bloody civil war and return glory to England once more
Robin Hood is released 14th May. Take a look at a clip from the movie:
