Russell Crowe
Russell Crowe has admitted that he was scared whilst filming his new movie Robin Hood.
The Oscar winner takes on the role of Robin in Ridley Scott's reworking of the famous story, the movie is their fourth project together.
But Crowe in an interview with Showbiz Spy he revealed that many of the cast were injured whilst filming: It's scary stuff. We had 15 people carried off the battlefield at one point. One guy got his eye poked out with a pike.
"Another guy broke an arm and a leg falling off a horse. A number of other people had their wills broken because it was violent and anarchic. Totally crazy."
"The scale of it is enormous. We had 130 horses doing a full-speed gallop charge into 600 guys on the ground.
"Every man on a horse did half-a-dozen fight moves before spinning around and coming back. It can all go south very quickly."
The movie, which also stars Cate Blanchett and Mark Strong, follows the story of an archer in the army of Richard Coeur de Lion who fights against the Norman invaders and becomes the legendary hero known as Robin Hood.
Robin Hood is released 14th May.
