Spawn creator Todd McFarlane says he will likely 'step back' as director of the Blumhouse reboot starring Jamie Foxx (exclusive):
After years of languishing in development hell, Spawn is finding new life. Creator Todd McFarlane hired three new writers to rework his script for the Blumhouse-produced reboot of 1997's live-action Spawn, tapping the trio of Scott Silver , Malcolm Spellman , and Matt Mixon .
Conceived by McFarlane as a lower-budgeted supernatural thriller, the comic book writer and artist says Spawn will remain a smaller-scale story — more Joker than Avengers. As for how hands-on McFarlane will be after handing over the script to new writers, the producer said,"Part of the conversation I have to have with them, whenever anybody comes on board, is me giving them as much sort of freedom as possible, right? Because what fun is it to say, 'You gotta come in and you got to do it this way.
