Famous comic book creator Todd McFarlane has offered an update on his Spawn reboot project, promising fans "the film's arrival".

Todd McFarlane Vows to Get Spawn Reboot Made With or Without Studio Backing

Speaking to BeTerrific at Toy Fair 2019, McFarlane explained how the reboot film is being made, not the case of "if" but "when" as they vowed to get on with the project or not. , Whether the studio engages itself in the process.

"Right now it's being polished by another writer-director from the script that we assigned to him," McFarlane told the outlet about the ongoing script modifications. "He should have been done with here in a few weeks, and then once we go back and forth and tighten it up a little bit, we're going to Hollywood and we're gonna get yes or no.

"Here I can tell you: I have people with money. Some people are going to help me make this film. The question is whether we go to Hollywood, make a deal with Hollywood, and Then go. Production, and then come back? Or do I take outside money, make it, and then come back to Hollywood? "

"Somehow, the film's coming," the comics icon-filmmaker continued. "It's not a 'when,' when 'I think it would be better for the process if we could attach one of the studios in advance, and then put it out. Because then we'd like the release date will be able to make the announcement, and some of the things that matter to fans, knowing that it is coming rather than making and then trying to get a release date later. "

While McFarlane assured fans that the Spawn reboot was still under development, he also acknowledged some of the challenges of not having advanced studio support, as he acknowledged that it can be difficult to attract talent without it.

"The reason for this is that their attorneys and agents and stuff will say that is a bit unknown, so we don't know if they're going to make a deal, if they make a deal, how many theaters are they going to release it. , What kind of advertising campaign, blah blah blah, "he explained." He loves the point. So the studio is taking advantage of it because they know that it can retain some of the talents that are either on it or can come on it. "

McFarlane had previously expressed his frustration over negotiating with Hollywood executives on the project, as he claimed it was difficult to get studio heads to see Span as a hard-hitting horror film instead of a superhero film was.

"Here I'm trying to understand Hollywood because they're still not getting out. Do I want to do a deadly serious, horror film that happens as a superhero, okay? And so they're tripping in this superhero part." Keep doing? And I want me to move that piece around, ”he told openly.
