As far as media adaptations go, Will Scarlet was played by Christian Slater in 1991’s Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves, Matthew Porretta in Robin Hood: Men in Tights, Scott Grimes in 2010’s Robin Hood and Michael Socha in the TV series Once Upon a Time in Wonderland.
Assuming everything works out, Dornan would be the fourth actor to be added to Robin Hood: Origins, following behind Egerton’s Robin, Eve Hewson as Maid Marian and Jamie Foxx as Little John.
Robin Hood: Origins has already built a solid cast, with Kingsman star Taron Egerton leading as Robin himself, but there’s still a few players that have yet to be added.
He’ll reprise the same role next year in Fifty Shades Darker and the year after that in Fifty Shades Freed.
