Though Spawn creator Todd McFarlane has long been talking up the potential for a movie reboot, few have actually taken him seriously. Until now. McFarlane confirmed this week that he has a first draft of the script written and is currently editing it down to a more palatable length. McFarlane also hopes to direct the film, though given his utter lack of experience in the area and the inevitable pressure to get Spawn right this time, the gig will almost certainly go to somebody else.
