The Crow reboot which was titled The Crow Reborn has a had a long history of development issues for years. The previous studio developing the reboot which was Relativity went bankrupt and so did the project which went into limbo. Now things are about to change for the better as Sony Pictures as picked up the project in the hopes that this long awaited reboot will finally see the light of day. Aquaman star Jason Momoa was originally attached to play the lead role with The Hallow director Corin Hardy attached to direct. There is no word yet if they are set to return to the project again. Sony has seen recent success over the years with successful films such as The Amazing Spider-Man 2 and The Emoji Movie which makes this studio the perfect choice to help revitalize this film.
The original film The Crow was based off the comic series by James O'Barr and was directed by Gods of Egypt director Alex Proyas. The film also starred Brandon Lee in his final role as The Crow after the tragic onset accident. The Crow became a hit and spawned three sequels with the last one being The Crow: Wicked Prayer which was released in 2005.
There is currently no release date yet, but it seems like The Crow reboot has solid grounds to now be made into a successful reboot with Sony at helm. What are your thoughts on this? Comment below!
