Sanders toldVanity Fairin February that Lee’s “soul is very much alive in this film.”

“There’s a real fragility and beauty to his version of theCrow, and I think Bill feels like he is a successor to that,” said Sanders.

“Obviously, it was a terrible tragedy, and it’s definitely something that we’ve always had in mind through the making of the film,” shared Sanders. “Brandon was an original voice and I think he will always be synonymous withThe Crow,and I hope he’s proud of what we’ve done and how we’ve brought the story back again.”

The Crowis in theaters June 7.
