In order to rule out the possibility of any gun-related accidents on the set of his action thriller, Sanders banned the use of any weapons capable of firing live ammunition or even blank rounds. Instead, he chose to equip actors on set for The Crow reboot with a variety of alternatives including Airsoft guns as well as rubber and metal decoys, which had no firing mechanism capable of shooting any type of projectile.
“The beauty of the Airsoft is that the slide on a Glock will still move back, but then you have to add the shell casing,” Sanders said. According to Sanders, not having real guns on the set of The Crow reboot was a “price worth paying,” even if the process ate into the film’s already limited budget. In order to maintain a sense of realism for the prop guns, smoke and muzzle flashes were then added in post-production.
