The new trailer for Robin Hood starring Russel Crowe and Cate Blanchett hit the net today and boy oh boy does it look awesome. Ridley Scott, the director of Gladiator, defiantly brings a lot of the same feel to his new movie Robin Hood which is due out May 2010. Robin Hood chronicles the life of an expert archer, previously interested only in self-preservation, from his service in King Richards army against the French. Upon Richards death, Robin travels to Nottingham, a town suffering from the corruption of a despotic sheriff and crippling taxation, where he falls for the spirited widow Lady Marion, a woman skeptical of the identity and motivations of this crusader from the forest. Hoping to earn the hand of Maid Marion and salvage the village, Robin assembles a gang whose lethal mercenary skills are matched only by its appetite for life. Together, they begin preying on the indulgent upper class to correct injustices under the sheriff.
