Based on the comic book created by Todd McFarlane, who also serves as executive producer, SPAWN 3 features the voices of Keith David (``There's Something About Mary,'' ``Armageddon,'' and HBO's ``Don King'') and Richard Dysart (TV's ``LA Law,'' ``Back to the Future III''); as well as guest voices of Jennifer Jason Leigh (``Single White Female,'' ``eXistenZ''), Eric Roberts (HBO's ``Lansky,'' ``Runaway Train'') and Robert Forster (``Jackie Brown'').

In SPAWN 3: THE ULTIMATE BATTLE, the depths of hell uncover Chinese Triads, government agents, Steven Wynn, the mysterious Zhang Lao, and the terrible secret and awesome power that lies behind the War Mask of Ghengis Khan. Todd McFarlane's Spawn stands alone, torn between heaven and hell. From Hell, the evil forces that control his destiny beckon, and from Heaven, bounty hunters have been sent to destroy him. Torn from the comic book page, the flesh and blood, the cloak and chains, the passion and the torment that is Spawn must rise up and prepare for the ultimate battle.
