Russell Crowe in Robin Hood

For his 21st century Robin Hood, director Ridley Scott may have gotten rid of the notorious green tights and feathered cap, but the rugged good looks and sexiness is still there played by none other than the gorgeous Russell Crowe.  Ridley Scott also directed Russell in the movie, Gladiator which is why he wanted Robin Hood portrayed as a “sharp-witted, tough-minded badass who knows how to handle his weaponry”.  Wow, that sounds a lot like Russell’s character, Maximus in Gladiator!

I’ve always loved movies like this, so I’m looking forward to seeing it on the big screen.  It’s being released tomorrow, so I don’t have long to wait!

I thought Kevin Costner was great in “Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves” back in 1991, but I’m thinking Russell Crowe may just have an edge over him on the whole Robin Hood image.  I’ve seen Gladiator 100 times, so this is one movie I’m not going to miss!

I have a feeling that Robin Hood costumes are going to be pretty hot this year!  From little boys to men, Robin Hood is going to be the new superhero of Halloween costumes!
