A new version of “The Crow” is finally here. It’s been over a decade since Hollywood started trying to get a new adaptation of James O’Barr’s comic book series off the ground, with everyone from Bradley Cooper to Jason Momoa at one point attached to play the central figure. The iteration now playing stars Bill Skarsgård, who’s no stranger to donning creepy makeup as he played Pennywise in the two “It” movies.
An iconic version of “The Crow” hit theaters back in 1994 and marked a tragic release – star Brandon Lee was accidentally killed during filming by a prop gun. “Snow White and the Huntsman” and “Ghost in the Shell” filmmaker Rupert Sanders is the one who brings the 2024 version to life, complete with his signature visual flourishes.
For those interested in seeing how this new version fares, here’s everything you need to know about seeing “The Crow” 2024.
