So now there is a large open spot to portray the un-dead avenger on the big screen, but still the question is being asked, who can truly fill the shoes that Brandon Lee left behind. Others have tried before like Vincent Pérez, Mark Dacascos, Eric Mabius and Edward Furlong. But each film and actor have never been able to capture the same magic. Below are my top three actors that could possibly do the comic and original film the justice they both deserve.
Tom Hiddleston: He's proven he can hold his own as the classic marvel villain Loki and has gained much popularity because of it, his style of acting is so versatile he can pretty much get away with anything, which makes him a perfect candidate for the role.
Nick Stahl: being no stranger to comic book movies, Stahl appeared in Sin City as Roark Jr or that creepy yellow guy. He's proven he can act well in diverse settings and supernatural narratives, this is proven by his performance in the sadly missed TV show Carnivàle.
Jake Gyllenhaal: even though he's never appeared in any comic book movies, Gyllenhaal has shown he can transform himself into various characters dark or light, the best example being Donnie Darko. I think he could be the best actor for the role and can recreate the look just as well as the original.
Joseph Gordon-Levitt: many would think Gordon-Levitt would be able to pull off playing The Crow, but what puts my faith in him is that in almost every film he's in he plays the role perfectly and always maintains his presence, this occurs especially in Nolan's Inception, Gordon-Levitt was surrounded by incredible talent Leonardo Dicaprio, Tom Hardy and Ken Watanabe, and yet appeared as one of the strongest characters in the entire movie.
The director of The Crow reboot Corin Hardy has recently announced that the movie will be closer to the graphic novel and will emotionally brutal, he's also stated that he'll start auditions for the lead role after The annual Sun dance Film festival. But what I want to know is who do you think would be perfect for the role that is Eric Draven?
