Everyone has a favorite genre of movies or TV shows, but one of the few that pleases the most people are historical epics. Whether it’s older period pieces like The Passion of the Christ (directed by Mel Gibson) or more modern tales like Dunkirk (starring Tom Hardy), there’s a historical epic out there to please everyone. Some of the biggest historical epics have also come on the small screen with shows like Game of Thrones, the hit HBO series inspired by the writings of George R.R. Martin that has led to several spin-offs. The only reason that there aren’t more entries in the genre is that historical epics are as expensive — sometimes even more so — than sci-fi shows and movies. MGM+ recently aired one of the best historical epics of the last few years, and it’s staging a comeback before it returns for Season 2.
Last year on November 2, MGM+ unleashed the first episode of Robin Hood into the world, and with the backing of stars like Sean Bean (The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring), it became one of the biggest shows of the year. The show earned scores of 77% from critics and 80% from audiences on Rotten Tomatoes, and despite consistent streaming success, it took MGM+ months to officially pick up the series for a second season. Before Robin Hood Season 2 debuts at a time that’s still unclear, the show has surged back into the MGM+ global top 10 in a handful of countries around the world. The demand for more Robin Hood episodes has never been higher, and Season 2 of the hit historical epic can safely be considered one of the most anticipated confirmed TV returns.

The Sorting Hat Speaks Your House Has Been Chosen
After careful deliberation, the Sorting Hat has made its decision. This is the house your values, your instincts, and your particular way of being in the world were made for.
Gryffindor Tower · Scarlet & Gold
🦁 Gryffindor
You have nerve. Not the reckless kind, but the deep, quiet courage that shows up even when you’re terrified — especially then.
Gryffindors don’t act because they’re fearless — they act because they understand that some things are worth being afraid for.
You stand up for people when it would be easier to look away.
You charge toward what’s right even when the odds are terrible.
Harry, Hermione, Ron — the heroes of Hogwarts’s greatest chapter — all called the tower with the scarlet and gold home. And now, so do you.
Slytherin Dungeon · Emerald & Silver
🐍 Slytherin
You are driven, sharp, and utterly clear-eyed about what you want and how to get there.
Slytherin has long been misunderstood — painted as the house of villains when it is, at its best, the house of those who refuse to accept limits placed on them by others.
You are resourceful, strategic, and you play the long game.
You know your worth. You protect your own fiercely.
The dungeon common room with its view of the Black Lake is yours — and the ambitions that will take you further than anyone expects are yours too.
Hufflepuff Basement · Yellow & Black
🦡 Hufflepuff
You are the kind of person that makes the world genuinely better just by being in it.
Hufflepuff is not the “safe” house or the “leftover” house — it is the house of those with the greatest heart and the most unwavering integrity.
You show up. You work hard. You don’t need glory or recognition — you do what’s right because it’s right.
Your loyalty never wavers, even when tested.
Nymphadora Tonks, Cedric Diggory, Newt Scamander — some of the wizarding world’s finest. And now you join them.
Ravenclaw Tower · Blue & Bronze
🦅 Ravenclaw
Your mind is your greatest gift, and you’ve always known it.
Ravenclaws are the thinkers, the questioners, the ones who find a puzzle irresistible and a good book better company than most people.
Ravenclaw is not merely about intelligence — it’s about the love of learning, the pursuit of truth, and the rare courage to admit you don’t know something yet.
You see the world with unusual clarity and depth.
Luna Lovegood, Filius Flitwick, Rowena Ravenclaw herself — all extraordinary, all original. And so are you.
What Is ‘Robin Hood’ About?
The official synopsis for Robin Hood reads as follows:
“Rob, a Saxon outlaw, and Marian, a Norman noblewoman, unite to fight injustice after the Norman conquest. He leads a rebel band while she infiltrates the corrupt court, both striving for justice and peace.”
Robin Hood was written and created for TV by Jonathan English and John Glenn, but it’s far from the first time the story of Robin Hood has been brought to the screen. Other famous actors such as Russell Crowe, Kevin Costner, and Taron Egerton have all played the character, and Hugh Jackman is next in line to play an older version soon with The Death of Robin Hood.
Check out the first season of Robin Hood on MGM+, and stay tuned to Collider for more updates and coverage of the show.
