www.robinhood2008.com - Zen Duke Entertainment David Stevens, 1-866-ZENDUKE Ext. 1 info@robinhood2008.com For the first time the legend of Robin Hood has been updated for today's era of globalization in a new epic set in post-911 America and also filmed in England, France, Switzerland, Japan, Hong Kong, Hungary, Thailand, India and Canada where it will
host special private screenings for VIPs attending the Toronto International Film Festival.
Dubbed "Hollywood's best kept secret -- a straight ten masterpiece that may well be the most action-packed romantic comedy ever made" by Randy Murton, News Editor for CityNews of Canada's biggest media giant Rogers-owned City TV (Home to Access Hollywood, Ellen DeGeneres, Jay Leno & Jimmy Kimmel), the screenings for Robin Hood 2.0: A Lover & A Fighter will take place at Toronto's most exclusive 5-star hotel The Hazelton on the 7th of September.
The hilarious action-packed romantic comedy updates Robin Hood for today's post-Matrix generation by replacing yesteryear's obsolete archery contests with sleek videogame inspired underground fight-clubs which showcase rare martial arts that have impressed reputed experts.
Among them is famed speaker Dr. Mike Mandel -- winner of the prestigious COCA Hall of Fame Award alongside the likes of Jim Carrey and Nickelback and appointed by legendary founder Bill Underwood to preserve the complex martial art of Defendo taught at the highly classified 'Camp X' (where Ian Fleming is said to have conceived James Bond) and the subject of an Oscar-nominated documentary and numerous appearances on Johnny Carson.
Dr. Mandel elaborates, "As the new Robin Hood, Zen Duke is the first and only actor-director to showcase unique and trademark martial arts moves from never-before-filmed styles like Daito Ryu Aikijitsu, Chin Na, British Jiujitsu and even Defendo -- all executed without wires, stunt doubles or SFX which is unprecedented. As the first film to update Robin Hood for today's America and the first romantic comedy to also feature rare martial arts, Robin Hood 2.0 will make film history in more ways than one."
