Both the mother and the true girlfriend of Brandon Lee, Eliza Hutton, although devastated by his death, were collaborative in completing the filming of The Crow.

That scene was completed without Brandon Lee, and the images where we can see Lee’s face were remade through digital processing, adding Lee’s face to his double.īrandon Lee’s death was filed as accidental. In the original scene of Eric Draven’s death (the one above), Brandon Lee is first hit by a knife and then killed by two gunshots. Someone says that the film with that scene was destroyed, some others that it was confiscated by the police for the investigations on his death. The original scene is obviously not in the film (there is no image of a shot with the grocery bag). A fragment of the dummy bullet hit Brandon Lee, in a wound that will later be fatal. The gun still had an old dummy bullet from a previous scene, and in order to make the scene more realistic a small explosive charge was triggered during the shot, inside the grocery bag. In the original scene Funboy, the thug played by Michael Massee, used a gun wrapped in a grocery bag.
