Described as having a “gritty tone,” the film finds Robin Hood returning from The Crusades to discover a Sherwood Forest rife with corruption and evil. Teaming with a band of outlaws, he takes matters into his own hands to set things right, with very little merry-making along the way.

Robin Hood is directed by Otto Bathurst (Peaky BlindersBlack Mirror) from a screenplay by Joby Harold (AwakeKing Arthur: Legend of the Sword). The film is produced by Leonardo DiCaprio, Jennifer Davisson Killoran, Basil Iwanyk, Tory Tunnell and Joby Harold.
