Hugh Jackman Stars in Dark Robin Hood Film Releasing September 2

Hugh Jackman portrays a grizzled, violent version of the legendary outlaw in "The Death of Robin Hood," a film that deliberately subverts the traditional swashbuckling myth. The movie, directed by Michael Sarnoski, is set for release in UK cinemas on September 2, 2026. The film presents an older Robin Hood, described as aged, dirty, and disheveled, who is tormented by a past filled with killings. The narrative begins with a brutal skirmish that leaves him gravely wounded. He awakens in a secluded priory on an island off the coast of Northern Ireland, where he is nursed back to health by a nun named Sister Brigid, played by Jodie Comer.
