By Oscar nominee Hugh Jackman and Emmy winner Jodie Comer are both attached to star in “The Death Of Robin Hood”.
The story is described as a darker reimagining of the classic Robin Hood tale. Set of its time, the film will see the title character grappling with his past after a life of crime and murder.
Now he’s a battleworn loner who finds himself gravely injured and in the hands of a mysterious woman who offers him a chance at salvation.
Filmmaker Michael Sarnoski (“Pig,” “A Quiet Place: Day One”) penned and will direct the film which will be sold at the upcoming Cannes market. Aaron Ryder, Andrew Swett and Alexander Black are producing.
The producers say in a statement: “This is not the story of Robin Hood we’ve all come to know. Michael has crafted something far more grounded and visceral.”
Production is due to begin in February next year with Lyrical Media fully financing.
