... will indeed play both roles, but it's not what you think, we aren't going to be seeing him standing either side of the screen talking to himself in that horrible faked “we're really on the same screen at the same time” moment. No, it seems that there's something a lot more subtle for the story, although it's still sounding far from the original stories. Over at MTV Grazer talks about the reveal: “The two role confusion is that what Robin Hood does is he sees Nottingham in battle very early in the movie and Nottingham dies. And Robin Hood takes over the identity of ...

Robin Hood/Nottingham Plot Details
Latino Review —
... Yay! Another origin story! Because nobody knows where Robin Hood originated! I HATE origin stories. I don't care to see their origin and I don't want to know it. We're not hiring them.

Besides, this movie will suck if it doesn't have flaming arrows. Even Costner knew you had to have flaming arrows. Click HERE to read the rest from MTV. Shot through the heart and you're to blame when you don't follow me at ...

... we last heard from Sherwood Forest, there was a bit of confusion as to who exactly Russell Crowe was playing in Nottingham. Was he Robin Hood? Was he the Sheriff of Nottingham? Were they the same guy? Did they change it up, halfway through? Those who had read the initial script reported they were two different characters -- something that was suggested by hints of a "love triangle" between Robin, Nottingham, and Maid Marian. Well, MTV caught up with Brian Grazer, who set the record straight on all the character ...

Scott made some comments that implied Crowe would be playing both characters, and I envisioned only two possible scenarios where that could work and I was a fan of neither. Well producer Brian Grazer recently spoke with MTV and he provided some much needed clarity to the dual roles, and shows that one of my ...
