USA Today release the first look of Russell Crowe as the vigilante bandit hero, Robin Hood. This movie reunites Gladiator star to director Ridley Scott.
The hero of the poor, who robs the rich and the corrupt will have a new outfit and style in this new action flick.
Producer Brian Grazer tells USA Today, "He doesn't have the old Robin Hood tights. He's got armor. He's very medieval. He looks, if anything, more like he did in Gladiator than anything we're used to seeing with Robin Hood."
"Oddly, it's a metaphor for today," Grazer says. "He's trying to create equality in a world where there are a lot of injustices. He's a crusader for the people, trying to reclaim some of the ill-gotten gains of the wealthy. That's a universal theme."
Not that the film will linger on the contemporary. "We just shot a scene where Maid Marion fires a flaming bow and arrow into the night sky. It's just a cool story."
Other cast includes Cate Blanchett, Vanessa Redgrave and Kevin Durand, set for 2010 release.
