The Death of Robin Hood (2026)

Grappling with his past after a life of crime and murder, Robin Hood finds himself gravely injured after a battle he thought would be his last. In the hands of a mysterious woman, he is offered a chance at salvation.

Dark Reimagining: This isn't your typical Robin Hood tale. Director Michael Sarnoski envisioned a darker, more grounded and visceral take on the legend, exploring the character's past crimes and moral struggles.

Hugh Jackman even shared behind-the-scenes images of the Irish countryside, expressing his gratitude for its beauty.
Sarnoski's Passion Project: Director Michael Sarnoski wrote the script for The Death of Robin Hood before working on A Quiet Place: Day One. He considered it his "smaller passion project" and a way to ensure he had a personal project to focus on while working on a larger studio film.
Hugh Jackman's Transformation: A time-lapse video was shared showing Hugh Jackman's transformation into Robin Hood, highlighting the complex makeup and hairstyling required for the role.
A24's Acquisition: A24 acquired the U.S. rights to The Death of Robin Hood in a competitive situation at the Cannes Film Market, signaling strong interest in this unique take on the classic story.
