After Clouser learned of the film, which has been in development for years and currently has Jamie Foxx attached to star in the titular role, he got even more enthusiastic about the possibility.
“Well, fantastic. So it’s gonna be a Blumhouse thing, then? Well, I’ve got some calls to make,” Clouser added. “I can’t believe it’s been out of the out of the public consciousness for so long. Yeah, that’s a no-brainer. I think you’re absolutely on the money with that recommendation. So sold.”
What Is the Spawn Reboot About?
Spawn will follow the journey of Al Simmons, a man who makes a deal with the devil and is reborn as a Hellspawn-turned-vigilante. The new film has been in the works since early 2015, with Spawn creator Todd McFarlane initially planning to write and direct it himself. In the years that have followed, Brian Tucker, Scott Silver, Malcolm Spellman, and Matthew Mixon have all been brought on to rewrite the script. Blumhouse’s Jason Blum has previously told ComicBook.com that the film is targeting a 2025 release date.ย
“It’s in very very active development,” Blum explained earlier this year. “What needs to happen is that my fellow friends the writers and the studios need to figure out their differences and get back to writing, but we’ve got a great group of folks putting it together, and my hope is that that movie — my prediction is maybe we’ll actually see a Spawn movie in ’25. No promises, but that’s my prediction.”
What Is Saw X About?
