Who's Robin Hood in Russell Crowe's Nottingham?


Russell Crowe is playing the Sheriff of Nottingham in Ridley Scott's movie Nottingham. And now we have word on Robin Hood -- and it's Russell, too!!

The news comes straight from the helmer himself, with Scott revealing “He’s playing both!” exclusively to MTV News during an interview for his new film “Body of Lies,” which co-stars Crowe. While Scott held additional details close to his chest — saying they would take too long to describe — he did exclaim that Crowe’s dual roles would be “a good old clever adjustment of characters. One becomes the other. It changes.”

Meanwhile, Russell joked to Leno that with the long locks he's growing for the movie that he's playing Maid Marian:
'It's like walking around with a dead Koala on your back,' he tells Extra.

Ain't It Cool accompanied the Robin Hood casting announcement with this cool clip:

  1. he's got the accent for Robin Hood (or the sheriff), though he'll probably have to get a bit slimmer than what his recent role in Body of Lies
