Guillermo Del Toro has said that the third Hellboy film is now being lined up and all parties involved are now trying to pull it together. The film is staying as was originally suggested, a closing act to a trilogy with Hellboy finally having to face his destiny.

"?The [first] two movies were really set up to have this unbelievable resolve,? said Perlman. ?Everything that was done in both movies was leading up to this destiny, written in stone, of what Hellboy has been summoned to Earth to do. To

not

do it, particularly in light of the scope that Guillermo is thinking of for the resolve, would be in my mind a little bit of a shame.?"

I so hope this achieves fruition!

David Hyde-Pierce back on vocal duties for Abe Sapien, though - "Actual Abe", who did him in the 2nd, simply didn't have the vocals, needs to be a Prowse/Earl Jones type of affair.

Another trilogy?

Why do they insist on making things that should have a persistent feel to them a trilogy?


Oh well, maybe they will make a BRPD film afterwards.

Del Toro has said that chances of a final Hellboy now rest on the performance of Pacific Rim 2. The upcoming PR2 is also why Del Toro has dropped his Justice League Dark project

I really liked the first two films, hopefully they don’t mess up with the concluding chapter, it’s taken long enough.

[Dogg Thang]

Wait, is this a concluding chapter? I thought it was a new reboot.

[JazzFunk]

It is.

A reboot, I mean. Unless someone knows any different?

[Neon Ignition]

Nope, it's a complete reboot, no connection at all to the Perlman entries

Mike Mignola has said that the team behind this film went back on forth on whether to make it a reboot or Hellboy III but ultimately chose reboot because they felt a new film needed a fresh take on the franchise and this new incarnation is darker, more horror themed with the Del-Toro aspects stripped out. Mignola feels the new incarnation strays incredibly close to the comics.

Tbh, it feels like it's gonna be OK. Ten years since I saw last one at flix so it seems like a wise move, bet Perlman must be pushing 70 now, can't subject him to full prostheses at that age, jeezis H. cripez...

[JazzFunk]

Yeah, I'm right, 68 and a half in Nov. They really should've struck while the iron was hot with the first two but it ran away. They were beautiful, even the second,though the lack of Niles Crane voice jarred.

They were lovely, just lovely. First is the best Raiders Of The Lost Ark movie that wasn't Raiders Of The Lost Ark.

Ron Perlman is 68 and Silent Hills died inbetween and even that was years ago now.



Long live the new flesh.
