Taron Egerton and Jamie Foxx join forces in new ‘Robin Hood’ movie

The first trailer of the upcoming movie Robin Hood is out, released by Lionsgate Movies. But this time the famous character from medieval times looks pretty different and it seem like it’s going to be a very different take on the outlaw.

The Kingsman lad Taron Egerton will be playing Sir Robin and is to be seen in full action jumping off buildings, riding horses and swinging on ropes, stealing bags of gold and starting fires.

Jamie Foxx will be playing Robin’s right hand man, Little John.

Jamie Dornan the hero from Fifty Shades also stars in this remake of Robin Hood. He will be lighting the flames of revolution in character of Will.

Other cast includes Eve hewson as Maid Marian,

Ben Mendelsoh as the Sheriff of Nottingham

And Tim Minchin as Friar Tuck. The director famous for Peaky Blinders and Black Mirror series, Otto Bathurst is going to make his silver screen debut with this one. Though the story springs from medieval Europe,  looking at the trailer one can be certain that there are some obvious modern twists to this particular remake.

The costume department of the film gives a twist to the attire. Robin Hood will also be seen wearing tailored suit jackets and something fancy for those times it could be hyper modernization of the Prince thief. With the same story plot stealing from the rich to give to the poor but with a lot of twists, this new Robin Hood film will strike theaters on November 21.
