ComingSoon.net has received new photos of Russell Crowe filming director Ridley Scott's Robin Hood in South Wales.

Opening in theaters on May 14, 2010, the Universal action-drama co-stars Cate Blanchett, Vanessa Redgrave, Mark Strong, Scott Grimes, Kevin Durand, Alan Doyle, Oscar Isaacs, Lea Seydoux and William Hurt. Crowe plays Robin of Loxley in an origin story of Robin Hood that hews close to historical facts of the period. Abandoned as a child, he finds community with the common people of Nottingham. Robin's abandonment and trust issues hamper his ability to fall in love. He meets his match in Marian (Blanchett), a strong, independent woman.

I have high hopes for this one. Pair Scott and Crowe and you usually get something great.

It still has that "Gladiator" aura to me, but I'm very curious anyway.

Yeah, 20 years ago. I just re watched that on blu ray and wow, way too much of a fairy tale. This will be much better.

This looks good to me, but I think Robinhood: Men In Tights will go down as the best Robinhood movie EVER.

If they're going with the Robin of Loxley thing, then it isn't historical. Robin most likely lived during Edward II, not during Richard's reign.

He looks like he lost weight for the role. Crowe was looking pretty chunky in his recent films.

I liked Gladiator and I loved the Directors Cut of Kingdom Of Heaven.....This seems like a mix between them.......COUNT ME IN.
