I'd completely forgotten they'd created this reboot. It's been a year since production and we've seen nothing. Hopefully, now with this deal, we'll start to see how the film looks.

It's good to see there's still a decent team behind this. If they really must do it, then it can't be a shitshow like Crow 4 (or 3. Or 2). Although it getting stuck in Development He'll is a concern. Perhaps the project is genuinely cursed.

I know The Crow: City of Angels was screwed with by Miramax. From what I've read, the cast and crew were very happy with the sequel.

However, Miramax wasn't impressed and edited the film to closer match the original, taking out chunks here and there.

There is a fan edit that uses pictures of the deleted scenes with text descriptions to fill in the gaps. It's one of those films where we'll never see the original version.

Interesting. The film was bad, I could see some restoration improving it but it's unlikely to make it actually good. It would be interesting to see if a directors cut was available for some future release but there's ultimately probably not much call for it.
