Keith David discusses reprising his role as Spawn for Mortal Kombat 11

Keith David was announced as the voice actor for Spawn in Mortal Kombat 11 a few weeks back, which is a pitch-perfect pick. It's not the first time David has voiced Spawn, as he took on the role for the Spawn animated series years ago. Comicbook.com caught up with David to see what it was like slipping back into the character for Mortal Kombat 11, and it seems he couldn't have been happier.

He only seems to strike out at the enemies of the people, not the ... He doesn't attack good people or people who do good things. He only goes after people who do bad things.”
