The first official trailer for the remake/reimagining/reboot (call it whatever) of the 1994 film The Crow, has dropped. The original starred the late Brandon Lee (son of the legendary Kung Fu film star Bruce Lee) who tragically died during filming. Lee was fatally wounded by a prop gun during filming. As Lee had finished most of his scenes before his death, the film was completed through script rewrites, a stunt double, and digital effects. the cult following of the character spawned a media franchise that includes the sequels The Crow: City of Angels (1996), The Crow: Salvation (2000), and The Crow: Wicked Prayer (2005).
Now Bill Skarsgard (IT: Chapter 2) fills the titular role in this gory, action-packed, hard-hitting modern reimagining.
