"The script isn't going as fast as I hoped," Blum tells Inverse. "We got a script, we're still doing work on the script. It's just not going as fast as I hoped, so it won't be coming out in '25."
The reboot has been in the works since 2016, when McFarlane first began teasing a new cinematic project based on his comic book series. McFarlane hyped up this reboot as an R-rated adaptation, unlike 1997's heavily lampooned PG-13 starring Michael Jai White.
McFarlane completed a script for the Spawn reboot in 2017, but the film has gone through several rewrites since then, with the most recent done by Scott Silver, Malcolm Spellman, and Matthew Mixon.
Created by McFarlane in 1992, Spawn follows a mercenary named Albert Francis 'Al' Simmons, who dies and goes to Hell for his crimes. He makes a deal with a demon to become a hellspawn and reemerges on Earth with supernatural powers and hideous scars.
