McFarlane Wants DiCaprio For ‘Spawn’ Remake
Talk about wishful thinking, Todd McFarlane, creator of the comic book series Spawn, told MTV that he pictures Leonardo DiCaprio In lead role for the new feature film adaptation. “The main character isn’t Spawn, per se, it’s the guy chasing Spawn,” McFarlane explained. “And I’ve always had [Leonardo] DiCaprio in the back of my mind.” He hints that he’d love to have DiCaprio play one of the two detectives (Sam and Twitch), who might be changed slightly for the execs.

Norwegian filmmaker Tommy Wirkola (Hansel & Gretel: Witch Hunters, Dead Snow, Violent Night) is headed into the open waters for an untitled shark attack horror movie, The Insneider exclusively reports this week. That scoop has been confirmed by Variety, with the site also reporting that Phoebe Dynevor (Fair Play) is in talks to star in the upcoming movie.
Adam McKay and Kevin Messick will produce the untitled movie for Sony, with Variety noting that production is expected to take place this coming summer in Australia.
“Plot details are being kept under wraps,” the site also notes.
Wirkola’s project is one of many new shark attack movies in the works, with Lizzy Greene starring in High Tide and Sean Byrne directing Dangerous Animals, to name just a couple.
The prospect of a shark attack movie directed by Tommy Wirkola is particularly exciting, however, as Wirkola’s movies are always wildly entertaining and extremely bloody.
