“The Crow” Soars Again?

  The Crow will fly again on the big screen. The lawsuit is settled. Relativity has hired a director and writer for a remake based on the classic comic book by James O’Barr.

  F. Javier Gutierrez (After the Fall) will direct and Jessie Wigutow will script according The Hollywood Reporter Heat Vision.

  The story centers on a murdered musician brought back to life by supernatural forces to avenge the killing of his fiancée and himself. Brandon Lee died in an accident on the set while filming the first movie in 1993. The Alex Proyas directed film became a cult classic. Brandon Lee was excellent in the film and it’s haunting to think about what could have been if not for the freak accident.

  At one point Bradley Cooper was on board but dropped out of the remake. I love the James O’Barr graphic novels. I also recommend the novel The Crow: The Lazarus Heart by Poppy Z. Brite.
