Norrington To Direct Crow Reboot?
Rob, you might get pissed at this one. According to Variety, first Blade director is set to revamp The Crow franchise.
For Norrington, “The Crow” deal marks the end of a long screen sabbatical. After making his breakthrough with the Marvel Comics hero “Blade,” Norrington took on a big-budget comic transfer with “The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen.” Neither the director nor his star, Sean Connery, has made a film since.
If Stephen hadn’t made that abortion of Alan Moore’s novel, I’d be semi-interested. Don’t bother. The first one starring the too-early Brandon Lee was a great dark, sad, forbodding film, the sequels were unnecessary, and never followed the TV show. So what’s the point?
