Hugh Jackman Is Older and Barely Recognisable in First Look at 'Robin Hood' Transformation

Hugh Jackman has been unveiled in a shock first look as a grizzled, ageing Robin Hood, appearing almost unrecognisable as the legendary outlaw at the end of his life. The actor, 56, is starring in The Death of Robin Hood, a dark re-imagining of the English folklore icon from A24, set for release in 2026.

The newly released images show Jackman with a wild mane of grey hair, a thick beard and a weather-beaten face etched with scars and regret, a far cry from the dashing heroes audiences have seen before. This Robin Hood is not a swashbuckling romantic, but a man reckoning with his violent past.
