《The Death of Robin Hood》transports the legendary outlaw’s heroic tale to the period after his final battle. According to the film’s introduction in A24’s official first look, Robin Hood suffers a serious injury in what he believed would be his final battle while grappling with a past marked by crime and murder.

The story moves into its next phase as the wounded Robin is placed in the care of an unidentified woman. Through that encounter, he is offered a chance at redemption. Rather than simply revisiting his exploits and legend, the film centers on a man who has lived a life of violence confronting his past in an injured body.

Michael Sarnoski wrote and directed the film, with Hugh Jackman playing Robin Hood. Jodie Comer, Bill Skarsgård, Murray Bartlett, and Noah Jupe are among the cast, joined by Fayssal Delaney. A24 will distribute the film, which is scheduled to open in U.S. theaters on June 19, 2026.

The official first look offers a compact introduction to the key characters, the filmmakers, and the crisis Robin Hood faces. The film’s central premise is that it begins not with the classic character at the height of his powers, but at a moment of choice that arrives after he has suffered a serious injury.
