Every comic book character is getting a new modern movie, so why isn't Spawn part of that trend?
In the modern age of comic book movies, it seems like every character is getting a high-profile feature film or TV show. Even the likes of Ghost Rider has gotten two separate motion pictures, while obscure entities like the Eternals have anchored big-screen outings.
It would take three years before another sizable update on this production. This update came just a few days before Deadpool premiered in February 2016 and changed the modern perception of how financially viable R-rated superhero movies could be. Todd McFarlane’s newest comments once again reiterated that his Spawn reboot would not be a normal superhero or action film.
A few months later, another exciting development occurred when Jeremy Renner was cast as Spawn's lead character, police officer Twitch Williams. If Spawn was being envisioned as this film’s equivalent to the shark in Jaws, then Williams was to be its answer for Sheriff Brody, a normal person who gets caught up in a larger-than-life and terrifying situation.
Part of the challenges facing Spawn includes the inherent difficulties in securing financing for any movie made outside the traditional Hollywood system. It’s hard to make any movie, but it’s especially difficult when you’re making a feature that isn’t bankrolled by Warner Bros. or Universal Pictures. Getting all those dollars aligned, not to mention pleasing the financiers once you’ve got monetary commitments from them, is an arduous task.
