Robin Hood 2025: The Version That Finally Gets It Right

Forget everything you know about Robin Hood — MGM Plus is rewriting the legend, and this time, Maid Marion isn’t standing in anyone’s shadow.

MGM’s Robin Hood (2025) reimagines the world’s most famous outlaw with a modern sense of equality and realism. Starring newcomer Jack Patton as Rob and Peaky Blinders’ Lauren McQueen as Marion, this retelling puts both characters at the center of England’s rebellion. According to IMDb, Rob leads the rebel outlaws while Marion infiltrates the corrupt Norman court — two sides of the same fight for justice.

What makes this Robin Hood stand out isn’t just the action or the romance—it’s the history. By giving Marion equal weight, the series revives the original meaning of the legend before centuries of ballads turned Robin into a fallen noble and Marion into a side note. With Sean Bean (Game of Thrones, Lord of the Rings) as the Sheriff of Nottingham, fans are already predicting another epic death—or maybe a shocking twist that finally breaks the meme.

This grounded, character-driven take could be the definitive Robin Hood for a new generation, balancing myth, politics, and modern storytelling in one bold reboot.
