Mumbai, August 30: The Crow breathes new life into James O’Barr's legendary graphic novel, with Bill Skarsgård stepping into the role of Eric Draven, a man brought back from the dead with a singular purpose: to rescue his beloved, Shelly, portrayed by the mesmerizing FKA Twigs. 

  Their love story, once shattered by their brutal murder, ignites a burning quest for vengeance as Eric battles the malevolent forces that tore him apart from Shelly. 

   The chemistry between Skarsgård and Twigs electrifies the screen, adding layers of intensity and passion to their characters' unbreakable bond. This film is not just an action-packed thrill ride; it’s a hauntingly beautiful journey into the depths of love, loss, and redemption that will leave audiences breathless and yearning for more.

   Talking about the on-screen relationship, FKA says, “Eric offers Shelly comfort, safety, and an unconditional love that she’s not experienced before.” 

   Elaborating on their character bond, the singer adds, “Shelly, in turn, offers Eric a sense of expression, art, and knowledge. She’s always talking about music and poetry, and has lived in beautiful places. Shelly provides Eric with a kind of home to explore and express himself, and be the most authentic version of himself. They’re a perfect fit of jigsaw puzzle pieces. So, when she’s ripped away from him, Eric has no choice but to go and find her, no matter what it costs him.”
