What is Bill Skarsgard’s Issue With Eric’s Look In 2024’s The Crow?

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.”

“Boy Kills World” Official Trailer

In Theaters April 26.
Skarsgård stars as “Boy” who avows revenge after his family is murdered by Hilda Van Der Koy (Janssen), the deranged matriarch of a corrupt post-apocalyptic dynasty that left the boy orphaned, deaf and voiceless. Driven by his inner voice, one which he co-opted from his favorite childhood video game, Boy trains with a mysterious shaman (Ruhian) to become an instrument of death and is set loose on the eve of the annual culling of dissidents. Bedlam ensues as Boy commits bloody martial arts mayhem, inciting a wrath of carnage and blood-letting. As he tries to get his bearings in this delirious realm, Boy soon falls in with a desperate resistance group, all the while bickering with the apparent ghost of his rebellious little sister.

Bill Joins “Lords of War”

Nicolas Cage, Bill Skarsgård Set For Andrew Niccol’s ‘Lord Of War’ Sequel For Vendôme Pictures; FilmNation To Launch Sales At Cannes

DEADLINE – Nicolas Cage (Renfield) and writer-director Andrew Niccol (Anon) will reteam with Vendôme Pictures, the Academy Award winning studio behind CODA, on Lords of War — a sequel to the 2005 crime thriller Lord of War, which starred Cage as Yuri Orlov, a composite character based on numerous arms dealers.

Bill Skarsgård (John Wick: Chapter 4) is also on board to star as Orlov’s son, with FilmNation Entertainment to rep international sales and introduce the film at Cannes, and CAA Media Finance to handle domestic rights.

In Lords of War, Yuri Orlov (Cage), the world’s most notorious gunrunner, discovers he has a son, Anton (Skarsgård), who isn’t trying to right his father’s wrongs — he’s trying to top them. Not only selling guns but the “trigger pullers” too, Anton is amassing a mercenary army to fight America’s Middle East conflicts. This is the story of Yuri and Anton’s bitter rivalry — even at odds over the same woman. Who will prevail when father and son go to war?

Philippe Rousselet and Fabrice Gianfermi (CODA, Lord of War) are returning to produce under their Vendôme Pictures banner, with Cage for Saturn Films. Skarsgård will serve as exec producer on the film heading into production this fall.

Skarsgård most recently starred opposite Keanu Reeves in John Wick: Chapter 4, also starring opposite Georgina Campbell in 20th Century Studios’ acclaimed horror pic Barbarian from filmmaker Zach Cregger. He’s in post on director Rupert Sanders’ reimagining of The Crow and is currently shooting Robert Eggers’ Nosferatu for Focus Features, which has him sharing the screen with Nicholas Hoult, Aaron Taylor-Johnson, Willem Dafoe, Lily-Rose Depp, Emma Corrin and more.
