It’s been a long time coming, but a remake of the 1994 film The Crow (which was based on the comic book series created by James O’Barr) will finally be making its way out into the world on August 23rd, which is when Lionsgate will be giving the film a theatrical release. With that release date swiftly approaching, we figured we should gather together all the information we have on this movie… and here it is, Everything We Know About The Crow Remake:
Development Hell
When the original The Crow was released, it was successful enough to spawn a franchise, with three sequels following over the next eleven years. We got The Crow: City of Angels in 1996, The Crow: Salvation in 2000, and The Crow: Wicked Prayer in 2005, with several other potential sequels (including one that would have been written and directed by Rob Zombie) being developed and scrapped along the way.

Have you ever wondered why so many popular rappers seem to have ‘Lil’ as a part of their stage name? As it turns out, this is more than just a simple stylistic choice, as the moniker may have some truth.

Original “The Crow” filmmaker Alex Proyas is voicing his feelings about the cult film’s long-gestating remake, helmed by Rupert Sanders. Proyas directed the 1994 original film based on the graphic novel about a man who returns from the dead to take revenge on the person who murdered him and his fiancée.
Twenty-eight year old actor Brandon Lee, the son of martial artist Bruce Lee, was killed on set during the final days of production when a prop gun fired during the making of Proyas’ film. Now, after various attempts at remakes over the past 30 years, “The Crow” is being rebooted with Bill Skarsgård playing the role of Eric Draven, as originated by Lee.
Proyas took to Facebook to share his reaction to the trailer for the upcoming Lionsgate feature, set for a June 7 release. (You can also see his posts below.)

Bill Skarsgård is back with a new character to haunt every fan’s dreams. In Rupert Sanders’ remake of The Crow, the actor plays Eric Draven who was murdered alongside his girlfriend Shelly (portrayed by FKA Twigs). At the point between life and death, he makes it back to avenge their fates.

By the time you figure out where a song by New York rapper and producer Xaviersobased is coming from, it’s usually already over. On 2021’s “115 & LSD,” which the 20-year-old cites as a creative breakthrough in his music, he builds up a cacophony of exotic-bird whistles, overlapping hums, overheard yells, exploding machine-gun shells, and blown-out 808s across just two minutes. Xavier’s songs often repeat halfway through at double speed; his voice tumbles through verses about twerking and trapping and blunt toking and Xbox. “On My Own,” from his recent mixtape Keep It Goin Xav,...

This time, Bill Skårsgard is ready to take over the world with his portrayal of Eric Draven/The Crow as the internet is buzzing with opinions on his first look as the character.

Yesterday, we saw the first images of what Bill Skarsgard of the It films is going to look like as goth rocker Eric Draven in director Rupert Sanders’ (Snow White and the Huntsman) remake of the 1994 classic The Crow (watch it Here). There weren’t a lot of positive reactions, with many fans comparing Skarsgard’s look – which Sanders said was a mixture of his own look in the ’90s, “when we were squat-raving in London,” with modern influences like Post Malone and Lil Peep – to Jared Leto’s poorly-received version of The Joker in Suicide Squad. One person who took to social media to blast the look of the new Eric Draven was Alex Proyas, who directed the ’94 version of The Crow.
Sharing one of the images, Proyas said, “Eric Draven’s having a bad hair day. Next reboot thanks.” In the comments, he continued to mock the look:...

Bill Skarsgård is bringing “The Crow” back to life, literally. The breakout “It” star leads the new reimagining of the graphic novel that was infamously brought to the big screen in 1994. Bruce Lee’s son Brandon Lee originally played the lead role of Eric Draven, a man who comes back from the dead to take revenge on the man who murdered him and his fiancée. Lee was killed on set during the final days of production when a prop gun fired.
“The Crow” has been set for various remakes over the past 30 years, with Mark Wahlberg, Jason Momoa, Bradley Cooper, James McAvoy, Tom Hiddleston, and Skarsgård’s own brother Alexander Skarsgård all previously attached to different iterations.
Now, with director Rupert Sanders at the helm, Skarsgård is taking on playing rockstar Draven who is killed alongside his lover Shelly (FKA Twigs) by her ex (Danny Huston). Draven sets out to...

The exclusive first look at Bill Skarsgård as Eric Draven / The Crow in the eponymous supernatural superhero film has been unveiled, and the similarities of his get-up to that of a separate live-action iteration of another comic-book character haven’t gone unnoticed. After years of finding its way through development limbo, The Crow (2024) is set to be a reboot.

Helmed by Rupert Sanders and starring singer-songwriter FKA Twigs alongside Skarsgård, fans have long wondered if this modern-day big-screen rendition of the character will live up to Brandon Lee’s 1994 film, which was a cult classic and remained largely unrivaled by the three other films that followed it.
The first few reactions to the latest unveiling have suggested that Skarsgård’s metamorphosis into the anti-hero parallels Jared Leto’s Joker in the catastrophic Suicide Squad (2016). The resemblance is quite uncanny.

After spending more than a decade in development hell, a remake of The Crow (watch it Here) has made its way through production and is set to receive a theatrical release, courtesy of Lionsgate, on June 7th. With that date just three months away, a trio of first look images have arrived online to show us what It star Bill Skarsgard and singer FKA twigs look like as the new versions of goth rocker Eric Draven and the love of his life, Shelly. These images originally showed up on Vanity Fair and can now be seen at the bottom of this article.
The film has the following synopsis: Soulmates Eric Draven (Skarsgard) and Shelly Webster (FKA twigs) are brutally murdered when the demons of her dark past catch up with them. Given the chance to save his true love by sacrificing himself, Eric sets out to seek merciless revenge on their killers,...

Bill Skarsgård (It) takes over the iconic role of Eric Draven in Lionsgate’s new reboot of The Crow, and the first images from the film have been released ahead of an official trailer.
The Crow reboot will release in theaters on June 7, 2024, and Vanity Fair has shared three first-look images this morning that reveal Bill Skarsgård’s tattooed take on Eric Draven.
Director Rupert Sanders explains to Vanity Fair, “I think the beauty of Bill is that he has a disturbing beauty, and as he transforms through his loss he becomes this thing that even he can’t control. It’s that famous line: ‘Whoever fights monsters must be careful that they don’t become one.’ That look was me in the ’90s when we were squat-raving in London, [mixed with some modern influences] like Post Malone and Lil Peep. I hope people who are 19 today look at him and go, ‘That guy is us.

Country star Kane Brown showed off his range by working with Edm producer Marshmello on the song “One Thing Right.” Surprisingly, Marshmello revealed he had some experience with country music. “One Thing Right” was one of the biggest songs of the year even though it barely reached the top 40.
Marshmello said Kane Brown’s ‘One Thing Right’ isn’t ‘nail-on-the-head country music’
Marshmello has collaborated with artists across genres. These include pop star Demi Lovato (“Ok Not to Be Ok”), rapper Lil Peep (“Spotlight”), alternative star Halsey (“Be Kind”), indie pop band Bastille (“Happier”), heavy metal band A Day to Remember (“Rescue Me”), and R&b singer Chris Brown (“Light Up”).

Two weeks after what would have been Juice Wrld’s 25th birthday — and a week after the four-year anniversary of his death — the rapper’s estate has shared a new song titled “Lace It,” featuring Eminem.
Both rappers warn of the dangers of addiction over their respective verses on the Benny Blanco-produced track, with Eminem — who survived his own battle with drugs — listing some of his musical peers that didn’t make it: Lil Peep, Ol’ Dirty Bastard, Shock G, Pimp C, Prince, and Michael Jackson.

In August 2020, Instagram influencer Aliza Jane appeared on No Jumper, the massively popular podcast whose content bounces from hip-hop to current events to, more recently, the odd appearance by alt-right polemicists. During her episode, Jane discussed alleged sexual encounters with multiple members of the Phoenix Suns basketball team, and said R&b singer Trey Songz held her in a hotel against her will and urinated on her. Songz denied all of the allegations, but the comments went viral, causing Jane, she says, to lose her job and get kicked out of her parents’ home.

“What young people want from pop culture isn’t what old people want from pop culture,” New York Times pop music critic Jon Caramanica observes in Justin Staple’s documentary “American Rapstar.” The film charts the rise of a generation of lo-fi rappers buoyed by the advent of online streaming platform SoundCloud, founded in 2007. Smokepurpp, Lil Xan, and Bhad Bhabie are among the (living) talking heads, while deceased rappers XXXTentacion and Lil Pump also get a spotlight as the feature dives into the substance-abuse epidemic plaguing the scene — from popping Xanax to the more serious, very often fatal fentanyl. Director Staple’s film introduces a lot of big ideas, mostly successfully, from indicting Big Pharma for encouraging pill addiction to the generational divide between the hip-hop artists who came of age in the early 1990s to today’s primarily internet-driven base. While a straightforward documentary in the classic sense, it...

"What young people want from pop culture is not what old people want from pop culture…" Utopia has revealed a trailer for a music documentary titled American Rapstar, which originally premiered back in 2020 at a few major documentary festivals. It's finally opening on VOD in October. A new scene of troubled, lo-fi young rappers have emerged from utilizing the SoundCloud streaming platform to quickly become the most culturally disruptive force in hip hop, shocking the world with their rambunctious antics, prescription drug use, facial tattoos, and tons of rebellious punk energy. Justin Staple's new doc American Rapstar tells the story of how these artists, including Smokepurpp, Lil Xan, XXXTentacion, Lil Peep and Bhad Bhabie, have unsettled the music industry, tested pop culture boundaries and paved their own unique roads. On one hand, these artists seem over-the-top ridiculous. On the other hand, this looks like an honest doc that digs...

Music managers don’t exactly have a sterling reputation in the broad pop-culture consciousness. Casual fans usually only hear about them when there’s serious drama (either personal or financial), and they’re frequently seen as trying to cynically swoop in on the New Hot Thing with only a cursory interest in the art they’re making. But nowadays, with artists being visible 24/7 and the industry undergoing tectonic shifts seemingly every few years, the role of a manager has changed, and so have the people doing it.

In 2017, Lil Uzi Vert’s “Xo Tour Llif3” peaked at Number Seven on the Billboard Hot 100. The song explored themes of substance abuse and suicide, finding a loyal audience in young listeners. In the chorus, by now etched in rap infamy, Uzi sings, “Push me to the edge/All my friends are dead,” with a bouncy, almost cartoonish swing. The track’s emotional dialogue marked a shift in hip-hop. Emo rap, a subgenre that grew in popularity on SoundCloud during the 2010s, was becoming mainstream.

An authorized but often unflattering portrait of rapper Jahesh Dwayne Ricardo Onfroy, known as XXXTentacion, Look at Me is a comprehensive study of his career, influences, and tragically short life. In that time he gave voice to a generation of confused and angry kids, though it was not without extreme toxicity. Directed by Sabaah Folayan, the documentary’s ultimate destiny is Hulu and the film responsibly provides resources for those thinking of harming themselves or for those who have been victims of domestic abuse, early on advising viewers to pause the film if they so need.
Launching his rap career while incarcerated, Onfroy was a kid committed to the game but full of self-hate, doubt, and living in a state of paranoia. Soundcloud rap is the music of an overmedicated generation, sometimes with sad consequences. If rock ‘n’ roll had its “27” club, Lil Peep, Juice Wrld, and XXXTentacion all died...

“Taurus” is the semi-autobiographical tale of a rap-slash-rock star on the tail-end of a self-destructive kick. Set to premiere at the Berlin Film Festival Feb. 13, the film stars Colson Baker (better known to fans as real-life rap-slash-rock star Machine Gun Kelly) as Cole, a Kurt Cobain-esque musician struggling with fatherhood, the music industry, substance abuse and his ex-wife (played by Megan Fox).
Tim Sutton, who wrote and directed the film, conceived of the idea after directing “The Last Son,” in which Baker plays a 19th century bank robber. “I went over to [Sutton’s on-set] living quarters and we were smoking a joint,” Baker recalled. “And he was like, ‘If you ever do a documentary on yourself, or make a movie, you have to let me make it.’” Baker agreed and a few weeks later Sutton sent over a script.

This will light your fire: A new documentary is in the works about the iconic frontman of The Doors, Jim Morrison.
Gunpowder & Sky, the production company behind the recent documentaries on Lil Peep and Tekashi69, is working with the Jim Morrison Estate, Jam Inc. and Jeff Pollack on the film. It will feature newly unearthed personal diaries, home movies and more from Morrison’s short but storied life.
No director is attached as of now. The film aims to show Morrison’s many dimensions and comes on the heels of a recently published book, “The Collected Works of Jim Morrison,” that includes his poetry, journals, transcripts and lyrics.

Gunpowder & Sky, the production company behind the recent documentaries on Lil Peep and Tekashi69, is working with the Jim Morrison Estate, Jam Inc. and Jeff Pollack on the film. It will feature newly unearthed personal diaries, home movies and more from Morrison’s short but storied life.
No director is attached as of now. The film aims to show Morrison’s many dimensions and comes on the heels of a recently published book, “The Collected Works of Jim Morrison,” that includes his poetry, journals, transcripts and lyrics.

A forthcoming movie starring Machine Gun Kelly as an up-and-coming but troubled musician will change its title after the original one, Good News, garnered criticism from Mac Miller’s brother, E! News reports.
The film, which was announced at the end of June, was not meant to be a biopic about any particular artist, but rather a fictional tale that drew inspiration from the stories of artists like Mac Miller, Juice Wrld, Pop Smoke, and Lil Peep.

Exclusive: Colson Baker is set to headline Rivulet Media’s troubled musician drama Good News directed and written by Tim Sutton.
Good News tells the story of the last days of a rising but troubled musician (Baker). While the feature is a complete work of fiction, it takes its inspiration from the arcs of such contemporary artists as Mac Miller, Lil Peep, Pop Smoke and Juice Wrld.
Production starts July 8 in Los Angeles. Jib Polhemus will produce alongside Rivulet Media’s film division President, Rob Paris and COO Mike Witherill.
Rivulet Media’s Rob Paris said: “Colson Baker is that rare talent who is ascending at an incredible pace both in film and music. He is exactly the kind of artist that Rivulet Media is looking to partner with and we couldn’t be more excited to support him on both fronts, especially with Tim...

ILoveMakonnen surprise-released a new album, My Parade, on Tuesday, highlighted by lead single “Whoopsy” (featuring Payday).
The track is built on woozy synth, grinding sub-bass and iLoveMakonnen’s recurring falsetto chirp of the title phrase. Payday pops up in the second half, tossing out brisk disses like “I ain’t even gotta duck ’cause your aim is lazy.”
In a statement, ILoveMakonnen described My Parade as his “first album being back in control over [his] creativity and art.”

Exclusive: HBO and HBO Max are eyeing more stories of larger-than-life rock stars and social issues with a first-look deal with Gunpowder & Sky.
The two-year agreement will see the WarnerMedia cable network and streamer have first look at Gunpowder & Sky’s library of documentaries and docuseries.

Macklemore wants to raise awareness about support groups for addicts. In a new interview on the People's Party with Talib Kweli podcast, released on Thursday, Jan. 28, the 37-year-old "Can't Hold Us" rapper recalled his battle with addiction and mourned the deaths of fellow hip hop stars Mac Miller, Lil Peep and Juice Wrld, who died of mixed drug toxicity. "We need to make sure that people know that there's resources, more funding to get people treatment that they need because if it wasn't for my pops having the 10 or 12 racks [thousand dollars] that it was when I first went to treatment and being willing to spend that on me, I'd be f--king dead,"...

Late in Justin Staples’ brief exploration of the sub-genre known as “SoundCloud Rap,” New York Times pop music critic Jon Caramanica opines that “what young people want out of pop culture isn’t what old people want” when explaining how the community couldn’t care less about the history of rap and hip-hop. Instead, SoundCloud Rap is perhaps closer aligned with the culture around the anarchic, boundary-less, no-wave punk movement of the early 1980s.
American Rapstar is by no means a definitive look at the genre, or even an individual artist. To be a comprehensive assessment, it might need to be a shapeless, paradoxical narrative like Ramez Silyan and Sebastian Jones’ Everybody’s Everything––the biography of the late Lil Peep. Framed by two authority figures, Caramancia and a childhood psychologist, American Rapstar presents a somewhat more academic view of a genre born in the basements of broken homes in...

Three years since Lil Peep’s death, the legal battle over who’s responsible for the young rap star’s drug overdose is more intense than ever. While Peep’s mother alleges that his label set him up with unfair contracts and directly contributed to his death, the label is now countering with its own claims against the estate.
Peep, whose real name is Gustav Elijah Åhr, soared to popularity on SoundCloud as a teenager and signed a multi-year contract with First Access Entertainment (Fae) in 2016. On November 15th, 2017 — shortly...

The songs that Eric Whitney makes under the name Ghostemane are lacerating and distorted, drawing from the pummeling energy of hardcore, the murky atmosphere and triplet flows of Memphis hip-hop, and the scabrous, anxiety-inducing wing of electronic music. This combination hardly seems readymade for mass consumption, especially if you believe, as Whitney does, that there is an absence “of aggression and emotion” in the pop mainstream. But the singer-songwriter-rapper-producer and multi-instrumentalist, who built his career independently, now amasses more than 40 million streams a month across his catalog, so his managers...

Trevor Daniel isn’t a TV critic, but the 25-year-old singer is giving it a go. Netflix’s Luke Cage receives a “bomb dude” rating, and Jessica Jones is “pretty fire.” It’s a week before the release of Daniel’s major-label debut, Nicotine, and instead of doing a press run in New York City — the U.S. epicenter of the coronavirus crisis — he’s decided to decamp to his home in Texas and catch up on his streaming queue.

As the film world continues to reckon with the ongoing impact of the coronavirus epidemic, festivals are scrambling to make contingency plans and movie theaters are being regarded as hotbeds of viral transmission.
Needless to say, streaming is about to play an even larger role in the industry than it already has, and it will be fascinating to see how the larger platforms adjust to accommodate a new kind of demand. Netflix isn’t redrawing its strategy quite yet, but the streamer’s March lineup still has plenty to offer for those who’d rather watch movies from the comfort of their own homes.
Another two Martin Scorsese masterpieces have been added to the service’s ever-expanding roster of the filmmaker’s work, while festival favorite “Crip Camp” starts the annual trickle of Sundance hits, and the anti-capitalist horror allegory “Platform” is a reminder that Netflix can be a fantastic...

Here's what's new on Netflix in March 2020! We've got a complete list of what's leaving, too.
Normally the big story for each month of Netflix new releases are the exciting batch of Netflix original series and movies arriving. For Netflix's new releases for March 2020, things are a little bit different. Yes, there are some cool originals here but...look at those movies!
March 1 sees the arrival of Corpse Bride, The Shawshank Redemption, There Will Be Blood, and Goodfellas! Martin Scorsese likely can't unilaterally decide when and where his movies stream, but it is a happy coincidence that Goodfellas will now exist alongside The Irishman.
As for those Netflix originals...Ozark is the biggest returning hit in March. The story of a very corrupt family airs its third season on March 27. Also of note are Castlevania season 3 (March 5), Altered Carbon: Resleeved (March 19). But really after Goodfellas, nothing else was really necessary.

Climate change has never been one singular enemy. But the ability to fully comprehend the threat of the climate crisis has become nearly impossible as it grows exponentially worse. You can’t just chalk it up to oil spills or plastic bags (not that you ever could) — the climate crisis is as omnipresent as the air we breathe and the food we consume every day. When faced with a challenge so all-encompassing as the rapid destruction of our planet, there’s a temptation to make it all easier to digest...
