Crowe Rumored to Play Both Leads in Nottingham

"Now, Russell Crowe has been most everywhere — from a New York jail to Meg Ryan’s hair."

"But Russell also likes to fight.  Too much to drink, and he’ll punch out your lights. What a crazy pair!"

"But, they’re both in Nottingham — Ridley Scott’s Nottingham. And, you’ll find — one is playing Robin Hood, the other is up to no good."

"You can lose your mind. When Russell Crowes are two of a kind."

That’s just this reporter’s self-indulgent way of telling you of reports that Crowe will pull a Patty Duke and play both Robin Hood and the Sheriff of Nottingham in Scott’s Sherwood-bound retelling.

It’s an interesting twist on a project that almost died several times over recent months.
