Todd McFarlane Says ‘Spawn’ Will Be A Dark & Ugly Two Hours Worth Of Movie
Spawn creator, Todd McFarlane in a recent interview with Nerdist, gave fans some insight into what we can expect of his next incarnation of Spawn, on the big screen. McFarlane, says we can expect his film to be devoid of “Joy” or “Fun lines.” Stating:
“There’s no joy… There’s gonna be no fun lines in it.”
McFarlane wants Spawn to be a pure horror film. He went on further to say:
“It’s just gonna be this dark, ugly two hours worth of movie.
McFarlane believes dark, gritty and devoid of humor is the recipe for most supernatural/horror films. He plans to distance himself from the typical Hollywood formula of “superhero/Avengers” style films and make something new featuring the hellish anti-hero.
‘Spawn’ is set to begin filming this summer and will star Jamie Foxx and Jeremy Renner.
As “Social Distancing” is rapidly becoming the new norm. Streaming services have ramped up their campaign more than ever for watching cinema in the comfort of your own home. On the other hand, theater has taken a hit. Of all the places in the world to be, sitting in a jam packed theater full of movie goers, isn’t the safest place. Many believe, this will be a catalyst for a movement that was inevitable all along. Which is, sending major blockbuster films, straight to streaming. Some companies have already taken the opportunity to do so, as Blumhouse recently moved ‘The Invisible Man‘ to streaming with a $20 household price tag.
As of right now, many of the films scheduled for release and others that were in the process of filming, have now been either delayed or halted indefinitely. Notably, ‘The Batman,’ and ‘Matrix 4’ have both halted production.

“It’s going to allow his character to have an arc so that he can go through a transformation”
In the modern era of cinema, the internet is no stranger to leaks and set photos. Most Directors are faced with the difficult challenge of deciding when and when not to release official photos. Recently, an onslaught of set photos have hit the web, showing the newly re-designed batman look, along with a glimpse of the “Batcycle” and possibly a look at catwoman.
Today, Matt Reeves decided to break the internet, giving us our first look at the new batmobile. Reeves describes ‘The Batman’ as a noir style film, told squarely on the shoulders of the dark knight. It would appear that Reeves is going with a truly grounded approach to the character. A “Year two” Batman, taking on Gotham’s criminal underworld, with a rogues gallery of villains.
“It’s very much a point of view-driven, noir Batman tale,” he said. “It’s told very squarely on his shoulders, and I hope it’s going to be a story that will be thrilling but also emotional. It’s more Batman in his detective mode than we’ve seen in the films. The comics have a history of that. He’s supposed to be the world’s greatest detective, and that’s not necessarily been a part of what the movies have been. I’d love this to be one where when we go on that journey of tracking down the criminals and trying to solve a crime, it’s going to allow his character to have an arc so that he can go through a transformation.”
‘The Batman’ hits theaters June 25, 2021 | Stars: Robert Pattinson, Zoe Kravitz, Colin Farrell, Andy Serkis, Paul Dano, Peter Sarsgaard, Jeffrey Wright
