New reboot of ‘The Crow’ is ready for casting
The script for ‘The Crow’ reboot is “very well received”
The Crow reboot is still moving forward and the relaunch of the James O’Barr graphic novel will reportedly move towards casting.
Writer-director Stephen Norrington is still on board with the project and his script for the new Crow is believed to be “very well received” by the project’s production company Relativity Media. The firm will now work on casting. No word when this step will actually begin.
Norrington’s Crow won’t be a direct remake of the 1994 Alex Proyas film starring Brandon Lee, who died while filming the movie. Instead, the film will move away from the grim Gothic styles to present a “realistic, hard-edged and mysterious, almost documentary-style,” Norrington says.
Since 2003’s dismal The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen, Norrington has been in relative obscurity and has only worked in the effects department on a few features.
