Original The Crow Director Says Fan Backlash ‘Speaks Volumes’

Alex Proyas, director of the 1994 movie “The Crow,” spoke up concerning the backlash to the upcoming remake of his movie, stating in a polite manner in which he does not believe it’s an excellent concept.

“I really don’t get any joy from seeing negativity about any fellow filmmakers work,” Proyas created on Facebook. “And I’m certain the cast and crew really had all good intentions, as we all do on any film. So it pains me to say any more on this topic, but I think the fan’s [sic] response speaks volumes.”

“The Crow” came to be a well known component of movie background as a result of the on-set fatality of its lead celebrity Brandon Lee, that was fatally fired by a prop weapon throughout shooting. Lee, the 28-year-old child of fighting styles tale Bruce Lee, plays an artist that is revived from the dead to look for revenge upon the gang that killed him and his future wife.

Lee was eliminated throughout the last days of capturing on the movie, which was finished with making use of feat increases and electronic editing and enhancing. The movie came to be a ticket office success and a cult standard with followers prizing Lee’s efficiency to this particular day.

“‘The Crow’ is not just a movie. Brandon Lee died making it and it was finished as a testament to his lost brilliance and tragic loss. It is his legacy. That’s how it should remain,” Proyas created.

The remake, guided by Rupert Sanders and established for launch by Lionsgate in June, obtained its very first trailer launched this previous week with “It” celebrity Costs Skarsgård having funThe Crow

“Obviously, it was a terrible tragedy and it’s definitely something that we’ve always had in mind through the making of the film,” Sanders claimed of the remake in a Vanity Fair meeting. “Brandon was an original voice and I think he will always be synonymous with ‘The Crow’ and I hope he’s proud of what we’ve done and how we’ve brought the story back again. His soul is very much alive in this film. There’s a real fragility and beauty to his version of the Crow, and I think Bill feels like he is a successor to that.”
