Boreanaz, Hopper Resurrect 'Crow' Franchise
Seeking to breathe new life into its "Crow" franchise, Dimension Films has tapped David Boreanaz, Edward Furlong, Dennis Hopper and Tara Reid to star in Wicked Prayer, the fourth installment of the supernatural series.
Lance Mungia [Six-String Samurai] is directing the project, which goes into production in June. Emmanuelle Chriqui, Danny Trejo, Marcus Chong and Tito Ortiz round out the cast.
Set in the Southwest, Prayer tells the story of ex-con Jimmy Cuervo (Furlong) and his girlfriend, Lily (Chriqui), who are murdered by Luc Crash (Boreanaz) and his satanic gang Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse, as part of a ritual for Crash to become an immortal demon. The rest of the gang is played by Chong, Ortiz and Reid, with Reid playing Crash's evil love interest. Hopper plays El Nino who marries Crash and Lola.
Jimmy returns from the afterlife as the Crow, an immortal vigilante who must come to terms with his new powers and the poisonous temptation of revenge, culminating in an epic battle between the Crow and the devil himself.
"The Crow" franchise is based on the comic book series created by James O'Barr. The first film in the series, 1994's The Crow, was marked by tragedy when star Brandon Lee was accidentally killed on the set.
