First of all I loved the orignal 1994 film with Brandon Lee and Ernie Hudson I never saw the sequels or tv series. I read the graphic novel I enjoyed it and on this reboot. I want a few differences then the original film.
This is what I want different and true to the graphic novel on the reboot I want Eirc and Shelly die when they are attacked by a gang of street thugs after their car breaks down. Eric is shot in the head left paralyzed, and can only watch as Shelly is bruatlly beaten and raped. They are left for dead on the side of the road. Original 1994 film Eric and Shelly sort of had the same fate but it was in their apartment instead of on the street and Eric was thrown out of the apartment window and Shelly died 30 hours later in the hospital.
Sam Witwer as Eric Draven
Sam Witwer is a good actor he is awesome on Being Human as Aidan and Star Wars the Force Unleashed 1-2 as Starkiller/clones of Starkiller thought he was good on Smallville I think he can do a good job if they decide to reboot The Crow..
Idris Elba as Offcier Albrecht
To be honest I think he's a good actor he was good on American Gangster, Tyler Perry's Daddy's little girl's, The Losers I thought he was good there and on Rock N Rolla and thought he was good on The Office. If they do a Reboot get Idris Elba as Albrecht he can do a good job.
James Marsters as Top Dollar
James Marsters I thought he was an awesome Lex Luthor on Superman Doomsday, DC Universe Online, Brainiac on Smallville, Spike on Buffy the Vampire Slayer and it's spin-off Angel saw him on Torchwood he was good 1 of them I can see him as Top Dollar forsure.
Saoirse Ronan as Sherri or Sarah on the 1994 film
She is a good actress I thought she was good on The Lovely Bones, Attonement those are the only films I seen her in so far.I think she can do an awesome job as Sherri/Sarah.
For Myca I chose Zhang Ziyi
I thought she was awesome on Memoriors of a Geshia sorry if I misspell it she did a ok job on TMNT as Karai originally wanted Jamie Chung but changed my mind again.
I'm casting the gang members in the way they were killed 1st Tin-Tin, 2nd Funboy, 3rd T-Bird, 4th Skank
Tin-Tin it was an easy one to find well I found it easy Mekhi Phifer
I thought he was good on ER, Dawn of the Dead, 8-Mile I think if he was given a chance I can see him as Tin-Tin
For Funboy and T-Bird I have 2 choices I plan on having Nick Stahl as Funboy and Adrien Brody as T-Bird but I looked at some other Crow fancast people would rather like Brody as Funboy just comment A. If you want Stahl to be Funboy while Brody is T-Bird or B. The actors switch roles
Topher Grace as Skank
I forgive the guy for playing Venom a LONG time back, he is bascially perfect for the role of Skank if they decide to reboot The Crow.
Zooey Deschanel or Natalie Portman as Shelly Webster
I think Zooey Deschanel can do a good job as Shelly she's a good actress and will be only be on the movie for the 10-15 minutes.
I still have to say Natalie Portman would do a good job as Shelly as well but I doubt she would be interested in this type of movie mostly depends on the script and who's directing thought about it after seeing her on Black Swan and Brothers.
There you have it my fancast for "The Crow" reboot, tomorrow evening I'll finally put out the Mass Effect fancast.
