In interviews with heyuguys.co.uk and denofgeek.com the actor admits that recent talk of him playing Eric Draven are premature. Looks like the internet might have jumped the gun on that story. That's unusual.
Based on the negative feedback he has taken on his involvement with The Crow I think it would be best if he didn't pursue this project. On a side note I enjoyed Limitless quite a bit and suggest all of you give it a shot. Added bonus is that Johnny Whitworth, who is playing Blackout in the new Ghost Rider film has a small and pivotal role in it. He is quite good, and I expect him to bring the goods as the boney biker's main villain.
Excerpt from the denofgeek.com article
Moving on to some future projects, how far down the road are you with The Crow at the moment?
I'm not sure where we are with that.
Are you still committed to it?
It was never like that. It was something that got a lot of traction on the Internet, but I'm not sure where that is.

How far down the road are you with the remake of The Crow?
I’m not sure where we are with that. I mean, it makes tracks on the internet but I’m really not sure.
