Todd McFarlane's Spawn animation project

Entities: Spawn (animated film) · San Diego Comic-Con · Todd McFarlane · Keith David · Mark Hamill

Overview

Across three consecutive days at San Diego Comic‑Con, Todd McFarlane gave consistent updates on his long‑shelved 90‑minute animated adaptation of the Spawn comic. On July 25 he announced the film was fully voiced—Keith David as Al Simmons and Mark Hamill as Twitch Williams—and that only final Foley and sound‑effects work remained before a studio could complete it. A follow‑up on July 27 reiterated that the voice recordings and animation were finished, emphasizing that the project was stored “in a box” and awaiting the right release window, potentially after the upcoming live‑action Spawn movie. The July 28 update repeated the same status, adding that the film still needed a studio to finish post‑production, and McFarlane also promoted the fifth “Killer Tomatoes” film being released at the convention.

These statements show the project moving from a completed voice and animation stage to awaiting final sound work and a partner studio, while remaining on hold for years due to earlier disputes. The repeated announcements suggest McFarlane is preparing to move the film forward once the remaining post‑production steps are addressed.
