Robin Hood Junket Moves From London Thanks to Volcano

Share

Ridley Scott‘s “Robin Hood” junket is moving from London to Los Angeles thanks to the Iceland volcano.

This news comes on the heels of “Iron Man 2” also canceling their London promotion and heading to the West Coast.

Poor Iceland–no economy, people were already leaving in droves for other countries, travel is screwed up around the world, and now they’ve interfered with Entertainment!

The Universal junket was scheduled for this coming weekend. At that begs an unusual question: “Robin Hood” is opening the Cannes Film Festival, but long lead press is going to see it three weeks in advance. What’s that all about?
