Crow franchise revenue is dwindling
Before Skarsgard’s film came out, there were four other crow Movies, but only the original 1994 adaptation (starring Brandon Lee) and the 1996 standalone sequel City of Angels (starring Vincent Perez) was released in theaters. The next two sequels, 2000’s salvation (starring Eric Mabius) and 2005’s Evil Prayer (starring Edward Furlong), both films had limited theatrical releases before debuting on video. Below, a look at how the 2024 sequel’s opening weekend compared to previous films in the series:
title | Opening Weekend | Box office totals |
|---|---|---|
crow (1994) | $11.8 million | $50.7 million |
The Crow: City of Angels (1996) | $9.8 million | $17.9 million |
crow (2024) | $4.5 million to $5 million | To be determined |

final, crow The film wasn’t necessarily a box office failure, but it did open well below City of Angels This could indicate that there will be no further films in this particular series’ universe. While the poor box office performance of the 1996 film did not prevent the production of two more films in the original series, it did prevent them from being widely released, only via direct-to-video.
