Obviously GOT fans see he did Blackwater and that gives some hope
David Harbour as Hellboy

no one from the original movies will be involved

complete reboot and it reported and suggested it will be an R waiting

will take a lot to top the original

I wish they'd have kept doing the animated ones with the cast from the original movies. I'm not real interested in a live action reboot.

Not a big fan of the first two (the second in particular) and Perlman was the best thing about both of them, so I can't say I'm too excited.

I don't see reason to bother with this

Perlman is Hellboy and you cant replace him

I expect this to be as horrible as last Hellraiser when they replaced Bradley with that god awful fat bald guy who couldn't act

Pearlman was amazing and Hellboy 2: The Golden Army was so, so freaking good; just a sensual feast.


Having said that...they got the director of Blackwater, David Harbour and Ian Mcshane in this...can't get off to a much better start than that...

Gonna be hard to top #2 and Perlman. Can't remember the name of the antagonist in #2 but I thought he was excellent. Well-written and a pleasure to watch dance around with a spear.

Prince Nuada aka Luke Goss. Same guy who did the bad guy in Blade 2. Good martial artist.

I personally liked the first one more than the sequel. Really disappointed we won't get the conclusive film. It's going to be hard to replace Del Toro and Perlman but I like the director and cast, so we'll see.

I'm worried though, that it might get lost in the now oversaturated superhero/comicbook market. I think the dark-horror and R rating could work in it's favour if it's made well.

Don't think it looks terrible but not sure about it but I loved the other two and this one has some big differences. Looks like they are going with more gore, and it seems to be more British based that then last one. Time will tell.

it's weird. It feels like a lower budget Hellboy, though I have to think its budget is well north of the $66 million used on the original.
