Fan Casting Gilbert with the White Hand in Robin Hood and the House of Plantagenet (TV-Series)

A clinical professional and the only marksman in the forest who rivals Robin Hood in sheer lethality. Gilbert is the insurgency’s technical elite, a long-range specialist who treats a bow as a surgical instrument. He operates without the baggage of ideology, viewing the rebellion as a high-stakes tactical game where precision is the only currency. He provides the invisible reach that makes Sherwood a "no-go zone" for the Sheriff's scouts. However, his presence creates cold professional friction; believing his skills are superior, he openly views himself as the more qualified leader for a guerrilla war. He is the expert waiting for Robin to make a tactical error, confident that once the current leadership fails, he is the only one capable of wielding the command.
