Last month we told you that directed by Stephen Norrington (The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen) had left Relativity Media‘s upcoming reboot of The Crow. Then, just days later we brought you the news that Mark Wahlberg (The Fighter) had been offered the lead role in the film.

Wahlberg recently spoke with Cinematical and had this to say about the film, and his possible casting:

“We never committed to making the movie. They talked to me about it, and there was a director attached who I was a fan of, and he’s no longer doing it. We just thought about it – ‘is there something cool to be done there?’ But we’re not committed to making the movie.”

The Crow is slated to hit theaters in 2011.
