Mistake. I can see Cooper playing a superhero but NOT the Crow. he's so wrong. He's more the Captain America/Superman type, not the gothic vigilante. If this happens, this will be the male version of Halle Barry's Catwoman. BOMB!!!
Horrible I truely wish I could pick hollywoods mind as to what makes them think this is gonna be rejected by loyal fans.
there are plenty of movies that didnt need to be remade and the crow is not one of them. It had horrible direction, and horrible acting, brandon lee excluded. He alone carried the movie, this being said perhaps we get a time machine to let him reclaim that perfect role. Though bradly cooper is a decent actor i have very little faith that he will top the role, the movie should be left where it is. Lets not commercialize another classic, wheather it was great or not.
This should not be done. The Crow is an EXCELLENT movie and it is a HORRIBLE idea to remake it.
I'll sit back with popcorn and watch all the fans throw tomatoes and everything else at the idea to boo it right off the screen after they've been being royally insulted by the idea of remaking probably the one movie in the world that does NOT need "rebooting". It's too bad the publish date for this article isn't April 1st.
