The Crow star Bill Skarsgård says he wishes his version of Eric Draven wasn’t in such great shape because it doesn’t fit the character.
It just feels like there is a mysterious campaign to say nothing good about this film now. Yes, it may be rubbish when we finally get to see it but in this run up to its release, its all negative.
Esthetically, the look is all wrong. It really seems like this was rushed through without any input from fans of the original. Including, perhaps, the main actor.
I think they’ve taken a look from one of the later comics. Maybe they’ve gone for this look to differentiate themselves from the original.
