Quote

Regarding Macht's role in The Spirit: "We think Gabriel has a devilishly charming quality, and the dry wit that embodies 'The Spirit', and we wanted to do this with someone who can embody this character for the next few years, because we anticipate we'll be making more than one 'Spirit' movie."—Mike Paseornek, Lionsgate film production⁶
