Danny Huston crowned in Robin Hood picture
LOS ANGELES (Hollywood Reporter) - In a role fit for a member of Hollywood royalty, Danny Huston will play King Richard I in the untitled Robin Hood movie starring Russell Crowe as the mythical hero.
Production on the Imagine/Universal film is underway in England with Ridley Scott at the helm.
Huston will step into the shoes of the historical figure King Richard, who became known as Richard the Lionheart because of his exploits in the Third Crusade.
Huston, the son of director John Huston, appeared this summer on the big screen in "X-Men Origins: Wolverine," playing Wolverine's nemesis William Stryker, and recently finished work on "Clash of the Titans," in which he plays Poseidon.
