In this compelling interview, actor Ernie Hudson sits down with Tony Horton to share his personal and poignant memories of his friendship with Brandon Lee, the talented actor and martial artist who tragically passed away during the filming of The Crow. Ernie reflects on the strong bond they formed on set and the impact Brandon's death had on him personally and professionally.

The Crow is a dark and haunting tale that has left a lasting impact on both film and comic book fans. Originally created by James O'Barr as a comic book series in 1989, The Crow tells the story of Eric Draven, a man brutally murdered along with his fiancée by a gang of criminals. One year later, he is resurrected by a mystical crow to seek vengeance on those responsible for their deaths. The comic is celebrated for its raw emotion, striking black-and-white artwork, and themes of love, loss, and revenge.

The 1994 film adaptation, directed by Alex Proyas and starring Brandon Lee in the role of Eric Draven, brought The Crow to the big screen with a gothic aesthetic that perfectly captured the dark tone of the original comic. The film is notable not only for its atmospheric visuals and powerful soundtrack but also for the tragic death of Brandon Lee during filming, which added an eerie and poignant layer to the movie's legacy. The Crow has since become a cult classic, praised for its intense narrative and emotional depth, while also standing as a tribute to Lee’s final and most memorable performance.
