The reboot of The Crow is already one of the most anticipated and yet tentative reboots currently in the works.

While the original went on to become a cult classic, its troubled and tragic production (during which lead Brandon Lee was tragically killed on-set) casts a shadow over any future efforts.

Which is why all eyes are on Hollywood's hottest leading man, Luke Evans, who has taken up the mantle in preparation of the forthcoming reboot.

Watch full video here:

We spoke to the star in-between chats about The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug , about what fans can expect, its faithfulness to the comics and source material, and why fans would be happy with what they have planned.

The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug opens in UK cinemas 13 December 2013.
