Having directed episodes of The Flash and Supergirl, Kevin Smith is now turning his attention to another comic book property, with Deadline reporting that he is attached to write, direct and executive produce a TV series based upon the Spawn spinoff Sam and Twitch.
“[Sam and Twitch] were originally introduced in Spawn, and it’s Todd McFarlane’s comic book series about these big-city homicide detectives who face a series of super grizzly crimes that are connected to the occult,” states BBB America president Sarah Barnett. “I bumped into Kevin Smith at Sundance and he is beyond himself excited about this, about the show.”
Spawn creator Todd McFarlane has also been trying to get a feature film reboot of Spawn off the ground for several years now, while Smith also recently announced a “reboot” in Jay and Silent Bob Reboot, which he plans on shooting this year after both Clerks 3 and Mallrats 2 fell through.
