Crowe in his Tommy Boy corsetWell, maybe not the entire industry, but all these production stoppages have to be coming out of someone's pocket, and I'm sure it's not Russell's.
The once magnificent, now pudgy and petulant Russell Crowe has been stirring shit on the set of the Robin Hood movie Universal is trying to make. They've teamed Crowe up with Ridley Scott, who has worked (and battled) with Crowe on four other movies, most notably Body of Lies, which sucked. The word is that Russell still blames that suckage on Scott, and has gone so far as to try to get him fired. He was able to get rid of Serial Miller, but Scott is proving a much worthier opponent.
Will this movie ever get made? Robin Hood was always one of my favorite movies, but Russell Crowe and Cate Blanchett as Robin Hood and Maid Marion? I dunno, but I don't think that's age appropriate for either actor. If anyone can save this movie it'll be Cate, but I wonder if Russell can bear to let her outshine him, which she of course will do. She's way out of his league.
