Original The Crow director doesn’t seem happy about the upcoming remake: “the fan’s response speaks volumes”

Following the release of the trailer of the upcoming The Crow remake, the original film’s director has expressed his disappointment at its existence.

Last week, the first trailer for the Rupert Sanders directed remake of The Crow was released, giving everyone a first look at Bill Skarsgård as Eric Draven in action. But Alex Proyas, director behind the 1994 classic original, recently shared his thoughts on his Facebook page about the new film in a now private post (via Variety). “I really don’t get any joy from seeing negativity about any fellow filmmakers work,” wrote Proyas. “And I’m certain the cast and crew really had all good intentions, as we all do on any film.

“So it pains me to say any more on this topic, but I think the fan’s response speaks volumes. [‘The Crow’] is not just a movie. Brandon Lee died making it, and it was finished as a testament to his lost brilliance and tragic loss. It is his legacy. That’s how it should remain.”
