SONY MAKING 'ROBIN HOOD' EPIC MOVIE FRANCHISE! KERRY WASHINGTON IN 'IS HE THE ONE"! ABC BUYS 'JUVIE' SITCOM, SYFY TURNS 'FIVE GHOSTS' COMIC INTO SF TV SERIES

ROBIN 'HOOD' TO BECOME
HISTORICAL MOVIE FRANCHISE
The biggest news today is that Sony has bought a script for HOOD fast paced historical action franchise in a heated war with other studios! Imagined as a franchise of movies which would each deal with the green archer Robin Hood and his men from Sherwood, these films would each focus on a different character from Little John and Friar Tuck to Will Scarlett with them being presented as a sort of mediaeval superhero team which shares the same universe like in AVENGERS and X MEN! The idea for the script comes from Cory Goodman ('The Last Witch Hunter') and Jeremy Lott ('Lore')! We saw Robin Hood last time in Hollywood four years ago with Russell Crowe and Cate Blanchett!
