Sienna Miller Leaves ‘Nottingham’
By Krystal Clark
Hollywood starlet Sienna Miller is Maid Marian no more! According to Joblo, the British actress dropped out of the Robin Hood retelling entitled, Nottingham. The film is directed by Ridley Scott and co-stars Oscar winner, Russell Crowe. The constant changes with the films release date may have been the main catalyst for Miller leaving the project, which was originally set for release this year. Nottingham has now been delayed and given a 2010 release date.
Miller’s rep stated that the actress is already in negotiations to star in another film as we speak, so no tears on her pillow. Miller’s next official role will be as Baroness in the Stephen Sommers film, G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra. Aside from Crowe, there are no other confirmed actors for the cast of Nottingham. Rumors circulated earlier this year that Christian Bale was attached to play Robin Hood, but according to earlier reports, Crowe will play both Robin Hood and the Sheriff of Nottingham, whatever that means.
