Yahoo have debuted the new TV Spot for Ridley Scott’s Robin Hood. I’ve been keeping my eye on this, for me this is what Ridley Scott does best, I loved Gladiator and Kingdom Of Heaven, he’s got epics mastered. Russell Crowe is always great in these sort of roles, to  be honest though his English accent sounded very dodgy, Don Cheadle in Oceans 13′esq (Don Cheadle’s great but he can’t be forgiven). And yes it does look a bit like Gladiator with bows and arrows.

In Robin Hood, the Earl of Huntington (Crowe) has returned to his North English village after fighting in the Third Crusade. Upon arrival, the nobleman and his servants discover the oppression caused by Nottingham’s new Sheriff (Matthew Macfadyen). Robin along with his band of Merry Men use their intelligence and military skills to free his home village from tyranny and corruption by taking back what is rightfully his. Robin must also win the affection of the recently widowed Maid Marian (Blanchett), while attempting to lead a successful revolt.
