“In reality, life in the Medieval Ages was a brutal fight for survival.” Indeed it was. Which is exactly why Robin had to fight back with sword & arrow. A24 has revealed another new promo featurette for The Death of Robin Hood, a re-imaginging of this classic legend of the English folk hero. Was he really a hero or just a killer? They’ve started sending out tons of new marketing for this, after everyone complained they weren’t doing enough promotion. Grappling with his past after a life of crime and murder, Robin Hood finds himself gravely injured after a battle he thought would be his last. Now in the hands of a mysterious woman on an island, he is offered a chance at salvation. Death of Robin Hood stars Hugh Jackman as old man Robin, with Jodie Comer, Bill Skarsgård, Murray Bartlett, and Noah Jupe. This video focuses on literally explaining how the history of Robin Hood has become fantasy and the actual gritty, violent story of who he was is much more unsettling. Hugh Jackman narrates this new promo discussing the alternate version of his story that we’ll see in this movie – which hit theaters in June in just a few weeks from now. Ready to watch?
Here’s the “brief history” promo for Michael Sarnoski’s movie The Death of Robin Hood, from YouTube:
