The Crow reboot gets a director

Wait, this idea has been announced since October of 2009?  Yeah, that's the first time I posted about a possible reboot to the Brandon Lee starring, The Crow.  A rumored director here, a lead actor there, and badda bing, badda boom, it disappeared. 

Well it's been brought back to life this week with this news... the film is set to be directed by Juan Carlos Fresnadillo, who directed 28 Weeks Later.  

The producers gave some insight into the setting of the film, U.S. Mexico border.  The production is set to start in the Fall of this year (I'm assuming a Summer 2012 release).  Last time I posted about the movie being rebooted, I had a great idea, and I'm going to stick by my idea.

What about rebooting the film with a female lead?  More specifically, Milla "Badass" Jovovich?  I'm telling you, the movie will be so much more intriguing if it's a female lead hellbent on revenge and retribution.  It may sound a lot like Alice from the Resident Evil franchise, but this is different.

I hope someone in Hollywood brings this up and the idea is considered.  Any takers?

The Crow to be rebooted, HERE'S MY VOTE:

It's been announced that The Crow will be rebooted. For those who don't remember, The Crow is the amazing action/drama starring the late Brandon Lee, in his final role. The movie came out in 1994, and has been followed up with a few, unmemorable sequels.
I don't want to tell Hollywood what to do, but to me, a reboot, should be different. Christopher Nolan's Batman is far different from Tim Burton's Batman. And FAR FAR different than Joel Schumacher's Batman. That, to me, is the definitive reboot; not many like this in Hollywood. So, here's my vote: Milla Jovovich as the lead in a new 'Crow' movie.

She is so talented, so gifted and so beautiful; I want to see a dark, vicious side to her. I want to see her seek revenge against those who have done her wrong. How bad ass would that be? How different from the original, yet keeping the same idea? She is a proven action star with the Resident Evil trilogy, she could do it! Let's start a petition eh? Who's with, or against me?
