Plot Summary:
Sir Ridley Scott and Russell Crowe (Gladiator) reunite to create a thrilling and adventurous tale of epic proportions, portraying the story of the man behind the legend that is Robin Hood…
Scott and screenwriter, Brian Helgeland rework the myths to follow the journey taken by archer Robin Longstride, through the early years as he develops from self-preserving, common archer and subject of the king to outlaw and unlikey hero. This is a tale of overcoming the oppression and tyranny of 13th Century England. From humble beginnings Hood soon develops into a character of inspiration, an eternal symbol of freedom for the generations to come.
