Crow Remake Gets June Release Date

The oft-debated remake of James O’Barr’s The Crow from director Rupert Sanders (Ghost in the Shell, Snow White and the Huntsman) will soar into theaters June 7, 2024, and bring with it an “authentic and visceral re-interpretation of its emotional power and mythology,” according to Charlotte Koh, Executive VP for Acquisitions and Co-Productions for Lionsgate.

Bill Skarsgard stars as Eric Draven, a role originally brought to the screen by the late Brandon Lee in 1994. Lee was tragically killed during production, which likely helped cement The Crow as a legendary film. The rest of the cast includes FKA Twigs, Danny Huston, Laura Birn, Sami Bouajila, and Jordan Bolger. The script was penned by Zach Baylin and Will Schneider, based on O’Barr’s graphic novel.

Soulmates Draven and Shelly Webster (FKA Twigs) are brutally murdered when the demons of her dark past catch up with them. Given the chance to save his true love by sacrificing himself, Eric sets out to seek merciless revenge on their killers, traversing the worlds of the living and the dead to put the wrong things right.

Additionally, Paramount will release a 4K Ultra HD Steelbook of the original 1994 film on May 7, 2024, and you can pre-order a copy from Amazon now.
