Summary

The article discusses A24's upcoming film "The Death of Robin Hood" starring Hugh Jackman, which presents a revisionist, violent take on the Robin Hood legend. It explores the gap between the film's gritty portrayal and the historical/mythological figure of Robin Hood, drawing from an interview with writer/director Michael Sarnoski on the Filmmaker Toolkit podcast. The piece examines what is known about the "real" Robin Hood, centuries of accumulated legend, and how Sarnoski's script reimagines the character.
