The cast of Rupert Sanders newly announced reboot of The Crow is growing. Its only been a few days since the announcement that Sanders was taking on the film with IT star Bill Skarsgård taking on the lead role.
Now THR is back with news that production has cast the role of Eric’s fiancée. British singer and dancer FKA Twigs will reportedly be taking on the role. In the 1994 original the role, known as Shelly Webster in that incarnation, was only a small part. It is understood that Zach Baylin’s script for the reboot will further develop the role in to a co-lead.
Crow was an indie comic written and drawn by James O’Barr in the late 1980s that told the dark tale of a man and his fiancee who are assaulted and killed by a gang after the couple’s car breaks down. The man is resurrected by a crow and exacts vengeance on those who took his life and the life of his love.
The film is sent to enter production in Prague and Munich in June 2022.
