New Wave of Superhero Films Features Supergirl, Lobo, and Robin Hood

Robin Hood, Supergirl, The Rock: The superheroes are back in cinema

Australian actress Milly Alcock stars in the Superman spinoff "Supergirl" – less a superhero movie than a space epic. The film also introduces a fan favourite: bounty hunter Lobo, played by Jason Momoa. Next, Hugh Jackman offers a different take in "The Death of Robin Hood". The film is very dark and sad and returns to the story's earliest origins, where Robin is not a swashbuckling hero but a feared medieval outlaw.
