The classic legend of the outlaw who steals from the rich and gives to the poor is back on television. MGM+ has launched a new series titled Robin Hood, which brings a fresh perspective to the timeless story. The show premiered in November 2025 with a two-episode debut, starting a weekly release schedule that will run through the end of the year. For viewers following the adventures of Rob and Marian, here is the complete release schedule for the first season.
The Premiere and Episode Count
Robin Hood began its run on Sunday, November 2, 2025. The series launched with a special two-episode premiere, giving audiences an extended first look into its world. Unlike series that release all episodes at once, this drama is following a weekly release model. The first season will consist of a total of 10 episodes, allowing the story to unfold over two months.
The decision to release episodes weekly helps build anticipation and allows the audience to follow the character developments and political intrigues step by step. The season is scheduled to conclude before the new year.

A Look at the Show’s Story and Cast
This new adaptation aims to present a more historically grounded version of the legend. The story is set in the period following the Norman conquest of England. It follows Rob, a Saxon forester’s son, and Marian, the daughter of a Norman lord, as they work together to fight injustice and royal corruption. Rob becomes the leader of a band of rebel outlaws, while Marian uses her position to gather intelligence from within the Norman courts.
The series features Jack Patten in the role of Robin “Rob” Hood, marking his television debut. Lauren McQueen plays Marian, his courageous partner. A notable piece of casting is Sean Bean as the Sheriff of Nottingham, the main antagonist. The supporting cast includes Connie Nielsen as Eleanor of Aquitaine, Lydia Peckham as Priscilla of Nottingham, and Marcus Fraser as Little John.
Michael Wright, the head of MGM+, described the show as a “new imagining of the classic tale”. He said the series is an “exciting, smart, sweeping, romantic adventure that brings historical authenticity, psychological depth, and a heightened focus on the relationship between Rob and Marian to the beloved story.”
What to Expect From the Series
The series explores the political and social tensions between the Saxons and Normans in 12th-century England. It focuses on themes of rebellion, justice, and loyalty. The show was filmed in Serbia to make use of its authentic medieval landscapes and production facilities. The creative team, led by showrunner John Glenn and director Jonathan English, aimed to create a show that feels both fresh and respectful to the original myth.
Early viewer reactions have been mixed but show interest. One viewer on a forum noted, “Only episode 1&2 have come out so far and I’m impressed if it continues on this track this show will go down well.” Another viewer commented on the creative historical approach, writing, “It’s goodies and baddies. It’s fun.”
