Luke Evans is ‘The Crow’

The Crow has found its lead, and (surprisingly) it isn’t one of the actors we’ve heard rumoured over the past few months.

Nope, it’s not James McAvoy. It isn’t Tom Hiddleston either. Eric Draven will be played by Luke Evans.

Evans is is slowly becoming a household name. Currently best know for his roles in The Three Musketeers, Immortals, and The Raven, he also plays the villain in Fast and Furious 6, and will also appear in the anticipated second and third chapters of The Hobbit.

Little else is known about The Crow remake at this point. The film will be directed by F. Javier Gutiérrez and is set to begin production in early 2014. What do you think of this casting choice?
