Todd McFarlane Gives An Update On The Upcoming Spawn Film

Last year, fans got the confirmation from Todd McFarlane himself that he is working on a new Spawn film. McFarlane shook Spawn fans when he said that the film would be horror-based & would show very little of Spawn. McFarlane also spoke about the film centering on Sam & Twitch, two homicide detectives that are were featured in the Spawn comics.m

McFarlane took to YouTube to reveal where he’s at with the script & that he’s currently looking for producers. Check out the video below.

Last year at San Diego Comic Con, McFarlane told fans that if the movie was picked up, it would be “an R-rated horror movie.” This will be Spawn’s second time on the big screen since Michael Jaime White played him in the 1997 film.

Spawn follows  Al Simmons (Lt. Colonel, USMC-Ret.), born in Detroit Michigan, was a highly trained Force Recon Marine who was at his most successful point when he saved the President from an attempted assassination. He was promoted to a high level and recruited to a highly classified unit within the CIA devoted to black ops. Once there, he began to question the morality of what his agency was doing. Jason Wynn hired Bruce Stinson (codenamed Chapel), Simmons’ friend and partner, to kill him. In a blazing inferno, Simmons was killed and his soul sent to Hell, because he had knowingly killed innocents while working for the CIA.

Simmons made a deal with an evil being known as Malebolgia: in exchange for his soul, he would get to see once again his wife, Wanda. However, when Simmons returned to the human world, five years had passed, and he had been transformed into a demonic creature with little memory of his former life. After regaining his memories, he sought out his wife, only to find she had moved on and married his best friend, Terry Fitzgerald, and that they now had a daughter named Cyan.
