Fans reminisce Logan after watching The Death of Robin Hood trailer

A recent photo of Hugh Jackman as Robin Hood has sparked nostalgia among fans, who are noticing strong resemblances between the character and his iconic role as Wolverine (Logan).

The A24 film follows Jackman’s character, a man trying to leave his criminal past behind. He’s given a second chance at life when Comer’s character saves him, but unexpectedly finds himself drawn back into a fight, almost like a modern-day Robin Hood.

After the trailer appeared on YouTube, fans quickly shared their reactions in the comments. One viewer playfully compared it to “Logan with a bow in medieval times.” Another noted the shift from “Old Man Logan” to something like “Old Man Robin Hood” was surprising. A third fan jokingly used Wolverine’s famous line, saying, “I’m Robin Hood, bub.”

The trailer for “The Death of Robin Hood” was released on X, previously known as Twitter. One user noted that it looked like a potential sequel to “Logan.”

I’ve been seeing a lot of chatter online comparing this film to ‘Logan,’ and honestly, I get it. One viewer pointed out the parallels – an aging hero, a young ward, a journey… it really does echo that vibe with Hugh Jackman. It’s an unexpected comparison, and another fan playfully admitted they never predicted this movie would draw those kinds of connections – definitely a surprise for their 2026 movie bingo card!

Hugh Jackman discussed the upcoming Robin Hood film with Entertainment Weekly in December 2025, expressing his admiration for director Michael Sarnoski. He highlighted that the script was powerful and thoughtfully explored the complexities of power – how it can be used for positive or negative purposes. Jackman described their portrayal of Robin Hood as a realistic and deeply human character, complete with flaws, past hurts, and genuine emotion, noting the story’s emotional weight and beauty.
