The Crow (2024 film)

Director [[Alex Proyas]] and actress Rochelle Davis, who played Sarah, both refused to see the reboot out of respect for [[Brandon Lee]]'s legacy (Lee portrayed Eric/The Crow in the [[The Crow (1994 film)|1994 film of the same name]]), with Proyas dismissing the reboot as a "cynical cash-grab". [[Sofia Shinas]], who played Shelly in the original, also expressed her disappointment in the reboot, while [[Ernie Hudson]], who played Sergeant Albrecht, expressed mixed feelings.{{efn|Attributed to multiple sources.<ref>{{Cite web |last=Bergeson |first=Samantha |date=August 22, 2024 |title='The Crow' Producer Is 'Surprised' by Alex Proyas' Disdain for the Bill Skarsgård Remake: It Should Make Him 'Proud' |url=https://www.indiewire.com/news/general-news/the-crow-producer-surprised-disdain-remake-1235015681/ |website=[[Indiewire]]|access-date=August 28, 2024 |archive-date=August 27, 2024 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20240827183432/https://www.indiewire.com/news/general-news/the-crow-producer-surprised-disdain-remake-1235015681/ |url-status=live}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |last=Bergeson |first=Samantha |date=March 18, 2024 |title=Original 'The Crow' Director Alex Proyas Says Film Should Remain Brandon Lee's 'Legacy' Instead of Being Remade |url=https://www.indiewire.com/news/general-news/original-the-crow-director-film-should-not-be-remade-1234965535/ |access-date=August 28, 2024}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |last=S.
