Sigh. So, for those who were also hoping this would just disappear, unfortunately, it’s looking like it’s becoming more and more of a reality. The Crow remake.
According to Geek Tyrant, the reboot will start filming soon. As previously reported, Stephen Norrington (Blade) will be directing it. He’s finished the script and claims this film will be very different in both design and story.
“The setting is the southwest — the Mexico/Arizona area — and an urban [setting], Detroit or Pittsburgh or something like that. There are two locations that the film is set. Its initial platform is in the southwest and then it moves to the big city in the north, middle or eastern America, and then back.”
Yeaaaahh… I’m not really sold. I know, I know, “Don’t judge something that’s not even out yet.” I get that… buuuuut my predictions aren’t high for this. At all. And I was a HUGE fan of the original… and completely bummed out as I watched everyone completely run the franchise to the ground.
But hey, who knows. Maybe Norrington will surprise me and prove me wrong. I just won’t hold my breath in the meanttime.
