Michael Jai White played the role in the first live-action version of “Spawn”. As opposed to the original film, this one will be a two-hander.

Says the site, “Fans of the comics will recognize the name Twitch Williams as one of the duo of NYPD homicide detectives, Sam and Twitch, who worked sometimes worked alongside Spawn. Without giving anything away, we can expect Twitch and Spawn to be working together to track down some baddies and dish out a special kind of vengeance.”
