Todd McFarlane Productions in association with Todd McFarlane Entertainment and Film Roman (FR) agreed to re-introduce Spawn to the world of animation through a feature-length direct-to-DVD movie. Going the ?direct-to-DVD? route allowed us the freedom to tell the type of story I?d envisioned, without being hampered by any restrictions on the story content. Whatever I wanted to see onscreen would be there.
...Finally, I decided we should use this initial movie as a jumping-on point. Essentially, we would be starting over. This would give us the opportunity to reinvent what had happened to this character in his five-year absence.
November 2004 ? enter Brian Holguin to assist me with writing the script, brainstorming begins between me, Brian and executive producer Terry Fitzgerald in an effort to flesh out the basic concept before Brian began his first draft.
March 30th - the final draft of the animation script was approved by all and locked!
The Hellspawn is now set to return and nothing will be the same.
- Todd
