The first trailer for The Death of Robin Hood has been released, offering a grim and grounded look at A24’s reimagining of the legendary outlaw.
Hugh Jackman stars as an older, battle-worn Robin Hood in the film from writer and director Michael Sarnoski.
The footage leans heavily into mood and atmosphere, reinforcing that this is not a traditional heroic take on the myth, but a stripped-down character study. Watch below.
A Dark, Grounded Take on Robin Hood
The trailer highlights Robin Hood as a hardened survivor rather than a folk hero, marked by scars, violence, and regret. Set against bleak landscapes, the tone suggests a reflective story focused on consequences rather than legend-building.
Sarnoski’s approach appears consistent with his previous work, favoring tension, realism, and character over spectacle.
Cast Includes Jodie Comer and Bill Skarsgård
Alongside Jackman, the film stars Jodie Comer, Bill Skarsgård, Murray Bartlett, and Noah Jupe.
The trailer offers brief glimpses of Skarsgård’s character, believed to be a version of Little John, and hints at strained relationships shaped by years of conflict.
Comer’s role remains largely mysterious, continuing the film’s restrained marketing approach.
