September 1, 2023Nearly all of Disney’s live-action remakes have come with a certain stigma. Even well-received films like Jon Favreau’s remake of The Jungle Book had some rolling their eyes. But as the films take a more progressive approach, more and more fans start to collectively groan.
The most grievous offender on the list seems to be the reviled Snow White, starring Rachel Zegler, but it might have some competition if Global TV and Stack TV move forward with their plans.
When most people hear the name “Robin Hood,” there’s a good chance they picture Disney’s famous foxy variant from the animated film. Although there have been dozens of adaptations, they more or less follow the same formula. Steal from the rich, give to the needy, unleash a slew of arrows, and roll the credits.
However, like so many stories in the public domain, Robin Hood and his adventures in Sherwood Forest have received multiple modern adaptations as well. While this has worked in some scenarios, the upcoming 2023 series sounds unreal.
Robyn Hood is a modern, gender-swapped version of the original legend. Jessye Romeo heads the series as the titular heroine, a sharp-shooting vigilante who leads the Hood, described as “a masked hip-hop group that makes viral videos online.”
@thejohnnymann on TikTok goes into detail regarding the show, and he’s just one of many creators who tear it to shreds. The question remains, how is this connected to the Disney classic?
At first glance, the use of stylized animal masks might be just a Disney-inspired easter egg, but the fact that “Robin Hood” is still a fox in a green costume, Little John (presumably the one with the staff) is still a bear, and the rabbit-mask character could be a Skippy tie-in as well is undeniably a jab in Disney’s direction.
We’ve seen Robin Hood as a fox, an action hero, a tech-savvy thief, and even a singing and dancing Cary Elwes, but this version is perhaps the most bizarre. While this is not a Disney-made production, it’s certainly safe to assume that many will mistake it for yet another “woke” remake from the House of Mouse.
