While her role has not been confirmed, it is likely to be Eric Draven’s fiancé, who was r*ped and killed by T-Bird and his associates in the original comic and later in the film.In a similar tune to the former reports of the project, which initially had actors like Bradley Cooper, Tom Hiddleston, and Jason Momoa, The Crow reboot is announced to be in pre-production. The estimated budget of this movie is set around $50 million, which may help it achieve the same vibe as the 1994 film by Alex Proyas, which he made with a budget of around $10 million.The Crow reboot with Bill Skarsgård is being written by a relative newcomer in the script department, Zach Baylin (of King Richard fame). Meanwhile, the long-awaited reboot based on James O’Barr’s iconic comic series will be produced by John Jencks, Edward R. Pressman, Molly Hassell, and Victor Hadida.While some fans are skeptical about yet another announcement and attempt to reboot the cult classic movie, it seems that the film has a higher probability of entering the shooting stage. In their report, THR stated that the movie is in a pre-production state, with the primary production set to begin in June. The publication also revealed the shooting locations to be in Prague and Munich.
