Luke Evans (“Dracula Untold”) is officially off “The Crow”.
Though the actor has hinted on several occasions that he’s no longer part of the production (seemingly tired of all the production delays), The Wrap offered official confirmation today. Director Corin Hardy is now on the hunt for a replacement.
Hardy tells Fangoria that the reboot of Alex Proyas’s 90’s classic is going to be pretty “emotional and brutal”.
“I…want to open the story up in such a way that the Crow is now part of a world where there are the Marvel movies and The Dark Knight movies. I intend it to be incredibly emotional and brutal, and all the things you’d want from a Crow film.
I want to make a movie that I would have wanted to see, as a huge fan of The Crow… I’m very much going back to the graphic novel, particularly looking into the illustrations themselves as much as the story, and picking out all those beautiful ideas and details that haven’t really been used yet.”
It’s unlikely the film will meet it’s intended kick-off date of April.
