Jamie Dornan May Be Will Scarlett In Robin Hood: Origins

By

jamie-dornan-slideIt looks like Jamie Dornan is heading from the Red Room to Sherwood Forest, as Variety reports that he’s in talks to play Will Scarlet in Robin Hood: Origins. If he does sign on, he’ll join Taron Egerton in the title role, Eve Hewson as Maid Marian, and Jamie Foxx as Little John.

As the title suggests the movie will be about the legendary character’s early days. However it’s not going back too far, as it’s previously been reported that here Robin ‘returns from fighting in The Crusades and finds that Sherwood Forest is rife with corruption and evil. He forms a band of outlaws and they take matters into their own hands.’

Otto Bathurst (Peaky Blinders) is set to direct from a script by Joby Harold. It’s expected the film will be released next year, with hopes it can become a franchise.

Jamie Foxx Will Be Robin Hood: Origins’ Little John

By

jamie-foxxSeveral Robin Hood movies have been in the works over the past few years, but one is now working its way towards the big screen, with the news, via THR, that Jamie Foxx has been cast as Little John in Robin Hood: Origins. Otto Bathurst (Peaky Blinders) is set to direct from a script by Joby Harold.

Taron Egerton is already onboard to play the title role. As the title suggests the movie will be about the legendary character’s early days. However it’s not going back too far, as it’s previously been reported that here Robin ‘returns from fighting in The Crusades and finds that Sherwood Forest is rife with corruption and evil. He forms a band of outlaws and they take matters into their own hands.’

It sounds like he might have brought back Little John with him, as Deadline suggests the character ‘starts out distrustful of Robin Hood (they fought on opposite sides), and then warms to the young hero in the gritty revisionist take on the legend.’ The film is expected to shoot this summer for release in 2017.
