When Jamie Foxx (as the title character) and Jeremy Renner signed for the long-gestating “Spawn” reboot in 2018, it seemingly got the project back on track.
Now, according to creator Todd McFarlane, the project has been sideswiped by another unfortunate setback. In an interview with Shoryuken, McFarlane was discussing his character’s involvement in the fighting game Mortal Kombat 11 when he let slip the “Spawn” film had lost its star.
“Last week I got some discouraging news, we had an academy award-winning guy who was going to do the movie with us, but he fell off. We had people willing to fund the movie as long as we had this guy attached but schedules were conflicting, and things had to change. That’s how close we are to getting this thing off the ground.”
No confirmation that that’s indeed Foxx McFarlane is referring to, but the dots seem to add up.
