The Crow star Bill Skarsgård shares the one regret he has about his appearance in the upcoming film. Serving as a reimagining of Alex Proyas’ 1994 movie starring Brandon Lee, 2024’s The Crow stars Skarsgård as Eric Draven, a murdered man who has dark powers bestowed upon him to avenge his own death and that of his lover, played by FKA twigs. Trailers for the movie, which is directed by Rupert Sanders, have already given audiences a look at Skarsgård’s appearance, with the actor boasting black eyeliner and leather clothes in a nod to the original.
In a recent interview with Empire Magazine (via SlashFilm), Skarsgård reveals that there’s one aspect of his appearance in The Crow that he’s not totally happy with. The actor, as it turns out, had just come off of filming action movie Boys Kills World when he started on Sanders’ reimagining, meaning he was far more toned and muscular than he would have liked to be. Check out Skarsgård’s explanation below:
“I felt very strange being in great shape for Eric. I wanted him to be really skinny! He was not a person that worked out, ever. In a perfect world he would have been a lot less fit in the first half of the movie.”
