Brandon Lee plays main character Eric Draven in THE CROW. He was accidentally killed by a dummy bullet onset while filming a pivotal scene. The actor Michael Massee fired the gun but it was in no way his fault. The scene was completed using a stunt double and CGI. RIP Brandon Lee!

If I remember from watching the DVD commentary, the zoom in of fun boy’s hand and the gun, 2 seconds or less of his zoomed in hand, is the only actual footage from Lee’s death that is in the film. The rest is gone.

Fun Fact: Chad Stahelski, director of the John Wick franchise, was a stuntman for Keanu Reeves in The Matrix and before that, was Brandon Lee’s stuntman in The Crow, one of them at least. Keanu & Brandon would be almost the same age today if Brandon was still alive. I believe that if Brandon didn’t die, he would’ve taken Keanu’s spot in The Matrix franchise.

HOLY CRAP! THANK YOU! When I first saw The Matrix, about 15 minutes into it, I was thinking "Brandon Lee should be playing that part!" I've been telling people that for YEARS! I know that this will come as a surprise, but The Crow is my favorite movie of all time, and in the near 30 years since it came out, no other movie has ever come CLOSE! And I'm so pissed they're talking about a reboot! Don't make another movie with Eric. Just make a new Crow character!

There's actually an interview with Michael Massee (pretty sure you can find it easily on this site) where he opens up about what happened that day and how there wasn't a day that went by that he didn't feel guilt over Brandon Lee's death. Just looking at his face, you can tell how haunted he is and it's sad to think that he lived the rest of his life with that guilt and it wasn't even his fault.

Michael quit acting after that movie for over a year til a friend talked him back into it. Masse has left us since then and I'm sure Brandon and him got together for a chat.

Bruce Lee had betrayed his Kung Fu older masters amongst him by teaching that blacks and whites were allowed to study Wing Chun except those masters didn't like it so they sent a Kung Fu Master named Wong Jack Man. Bruce won that fight and won his right to teach anyone not chinese his Wing Chun Kung Fu. Bruce died from taking some headache medicine later in his life from a friend. He layed down and never woke up. He was in perfect physical health when he died.

My parents told me he died during filming but it’s crazy to know how it actually occurred at my current age and how they just picked the movie off after that. It’s really shocking to me that they would even end up putting his face as a “cgi body falling.” Watching rn in 2024 because of the current release of the new crow trailer. Hoping it will be somewhat okay.

The digital fill in FITS the movie though. As incredibly horrific as it was to lose Brandon Lee unnecessarily, this scene looks like it was SUPPOSED to be almost superimposed & bit unrealistic and uncanny. It's a beautiful lead up to Eric Draven's actualization of becoming the vengeful hunter of those that wronged him. It's as if he's gaining his resolve to avenge the wrongs he witnessed and were his ultimate undoing mortally. Truthfully, it's one of my favorite scenes BECAUSE it's just a little bit off and seems wholly intentional, even if you know the back story going in. One of my all time favorites that I watch repeatedly throughout each year. It's a comfort to all who know the secrets of The Divine Universe and the powers it uses and is able to infuse temporarily into mortals for the purpose of keeping the delicate balance in tact. I really hope the "theys" have dedicated the new 2024 remake to the memory of Brandon Lee. Not to do so is insanely uncouth and arrogant.
