Crowe will be starring in the new film called Nottingham.
The actor will star in the next adaptation of the story, being directed by Ridley Scott and also starring Sienna Miller. However, Crowe will not be dressed in the traditional Robin Hood attire with which the character is generally associated.
"I will not wear tights because according to our research they weren’t invented for another 300 years. I apologise to you all – and to Sienna," said Crowe.
The star also revealed that he never would have agreed to star in the film if he didn’t believe that it is the truest version of the story ever made.
