Jason Momoa, the
Game of Thrones alum who plays Aquaman in the upcoming DC comics films, is in talks to star in
The Crow, Relativity’s reboot of the 1994 cult classic starring Brandon Lee,
Mashable has exclusively learned.
Corin Hardy (
The Hallow) is set to direct
The Crow, which is based on the beloved graphic novel by James O’Barr. Alex Proyas directed the original, which tragically served as Lee’s final film following an accidental shooting on set.
Momoa
posted a photo of himself with Hardy several days ago on Instagram with the hashtags #sealthedeal, #greatnewstocome and #dreamjob.
The Crow is the only movie that Hardy is known to be currently casting.
Multiple people close to the project confirm to
Mashable that Momoa is in talks to play the role, and has figured out a way to work it around his
Aquaman duties.
The Crow traditionally follows Eric Draven, who returns from the dead to track down his killers and avenge his murdered fiancé with the help of a mystical bird.
