France’s Gaumont and Albertine Productions have announced they are developing a French feature film version of Robin Hood.
Ludovic Bernard, whose credits include feature The Climb and episodes of hit series Lupin, which Gaumont produced for Netflix, will direct.
He will also co-write the screenplay with Julien Lambroschini, whose credits include Melanie Laurent’s Breathe, and male synchronized swim team comedy Sink Or Swim.
Gaumont CEO Sidonie Dumas is producing for Gaumont, which will also handle French distribution and international sales, with Matthieu Tarot at Albertine Productions.
“Robin des Bois’ ambition is immense. Robin is a brigand with a big heart: he is Saxon, he falls in love with a Norman, he is faithful to his King and he redistributes wealth.” said Tarot.
“After Eroll Flynn, Walt Disney’s Fox and Kevin Costner, our wish is to bring a French touch to this modern-day hero. I am very proud...

L’hermine
Director: Christian Vincent // Writer: Christian Vincent
A woefully underrated writer and director, Christian Vincent (pictured above) won a Cesar for his directorial debut back in 1990 with La Discrete, which starred Fabrice Luchini. In 2013, his latest film, The Weinstein Co. distributed Haute Cuisine, featuring a fantastic performance from Catherine Frot, perhaps garnered him his most international acclaim since his 1994 Isabelle Huppert headlined La Separation. Now, with The Stoat (L’hermine), Vincent reunites with Luchini and Danish actress Sidse Babett Knudsen (seen last year in the terrific Peter Strickland film, The Duke of Burgundy). According to Vincent, the story will revolve around “the president of a criminal court in the twilight of his career, who is alone and feared by everyone. The story kicks off the day before a trial, and during the hearing, something will happen that will change everything.” Indeed, sitting on the jury of a case that...
