Sean Bean’s Robin Hood Becomes an Instant Streaming Hit

As a big fan of historical dramas, I was excited to hear about the new Robin Hood series that premiered on MGM+ on November 2nd. And wow, it’s already a hit! According to FlixPatrol, it quickly became the most-watched show on the platform in the US. I’m especially intrigued by the casting – Rowan Atkinson as the Sheriff of Nottingham is a brilliant choice, and Jake Patten seems perfect as Robin Hood. Connie Nielsen as Eleanor of Aquitaine adds some serious star power, too. It’s currently tied with Outlander: Blood of My Blood for the top spot, beating out shows like From. The series is the work of creators Jonathan English and John Glenn, who also wrote the scripts, so it’s clearly a passion project for them.
