Yes, the prospect of a new Spawn movie is mentioned every so often, but it appears that it actually might be happening this time, as creator Todd McFarlane announced via Facebook that he will be writing and directing the film, which will see him team with fast-rising horror producer Jason Blum and his Blumhouse Productions label.

Though most fans won't believe that the movie is happening until they're actually sat in the cinema watching it, and McFarlane making his directorial debut on the project is a huge gamble, the fact that it's got the backing of someone as shrewd and smart as Blum is definitely very encouraging.
