From Lionsgate TV and showrunner John Glenn, Robin Hood is described as a sweeping, romantic adventure, a modern take of the classic tale that brings historical authenticity, psychological depth, and a heightened focus on the relationship between Rob and Marian.
In the series, following the Norman invasion of England, Rob (Patten) – a Saxon forester’s son – and Marian (McQueen) the daughter of a Norman lord – fall in love and work together to fight for justice and freedom. As Rob rises as the leader of a band of rebel outlaws, Marian infiltrates the power at court, as both work together to thwart royal corruption and bring peace to the land.
King portrays Prince John, younger brother to Richard, son of King Henry, and a dangerous pretender to the throne.
Mison plays Hugh, Rob’s father, a proud Saxon with deep ties to the land.
Griffith is Joan, the wife of Hugh Locksley and mother of Rob.
Gredić is Drew, the middle sibling in the Miller family.
Lazić plays Henry. Mute since birth, Henry is intelligent, perceptive, and humorous, relying on his siblings as his intermediaries to help navigate the world.
Marjanović portrays Drogo. Guy of Gisborne’s towering right hand, Drogo is a silent executioner whose sheer size and stillness intimidate more than most men’s fury.
Gavrilović is Godda. A mythological Saxon goddess, Godda is the beating heart of the supernatural world in this version of Robin Hood.
Glenn executive produces with producer-director Jonathan English and Todd Lieberman of Hidden Pictures. Glenn and English also serve as writers, while Carly Elter and Nicole Bryant will oversee the series for Hidden Pictures.
