I really hated the first Spawn movie. It’s not that it was the worst film in the world (but it was pretty damn bad), but my displeasure was compounded by the fact that I was sooo looking forward to it. Some of the effects were pretty good for it’s day, but overall it was just a junk movie.
Could redemption be in the cards? Apparently the Canadian creator of Spawn Todd McFarlane has announced that there is indeed a Spawn 2 that will be in theaters by the end of 2007. The good folks over at Hollywood North reported the following:
“I’m in the middle of the script and will have to do some rewrites, but I’m hoping by the end of the year, I’ll be behind the camera,” McFarlane said. “You can do wonderful movies for under $10 million…I’ve got the money, so I’m going to write it, produce it and direct it.”
McFarlane said that the film will be focused on the character ‘Twitch’. “Spawn doesn’t utter a word in this film…the guy with all the speaking parts is Twitch…
A full length film like Spawn (that will require it’s fair share of visual effects) for UNDER $10 MILLION BUCKS?!?! And a film where the main character doesn’t even speak?!?! Hmmm… sounds like this one will turn out just as bad as the first. Hope I’m wrong about that.
