Todd McFarlane Wants Stan Lee To Make a "Dark, Snarly, Wife Beating" Cameo In SPAWN

We already know that Spawn is coming back to the big screen, and Todd McFarlane has his way it will include an appearance from Marvel icon and King of Cameos Stan Lee.

McFarlane teased the cameo at New York Comic Con in an exclusive interview with ComicBook.com. When asked if he is planning on putting himself in the movie he said he has some other ideas.

"I probably will, right?, Again, Hitchcock used to be in his creepy movies, and then I remember M. Night Shyamalan went into his, and I go, 'Come on! If you can't have fun being in yours, then what the heck, right?'"

He went on to say:

"I got a good buddy named Stan Lee, and he keeps going, 'When are we going to shoot that cameo, Todd?' So hopefully, I'll get Stan to maybe come in there and do something'". 

What kind of cameo can we expect to see from Lee? McFarlane says he wants to to be dark:

"Yeah. But I want to do a dark anti-cameo, unfriendly Stan Lee, and he's like, 'Todd, I'm in!' I've explained what I want to do, and he's like, 'Oh, cool.' So, I'm not gonna be, like, the happy-go-lucky? I go, 'No, you're gonna be ugly. You're gonna be this Schlitz-drinking, wife beater, three-day-old shave, snarly dude,' and he's like, 'I love it!' So, we'll see if we can pull it off."
"I'm not going to kill him. I'll just make him gnarly."

It will be interesting to see what actually ends up happening in the movie. Spawn hits theaters in 2019.
