New Hellboy image released, reboot is “more violent and more bloody”

November 26, 2018 by Amie Cranswick

With less than five months to go until its release, it shouldn’t be too much longer until we get a trailer for Lionsgate’s upcoming Hellboy reboot, but in the meantime Empire has unveiled a new image from the film giving us another look at Stranger Things’ David Harbour in the title role…

Meanwhile, speaking the outlet, director Neil Marshall has explained how he has tried to differentiate the new movie from the two previous Guillermo del Toro-helmed outings:

“It was always a case of, ‘When in doubt, go back to the source material.’ Some of the stuff is pretty sick. More violent and more bloody. We weren’t making it with handcuffs on.”

Hellboy is set for release on April 12th 2019, and is directed by Neil Marshall (Game of Thrones), with Stranger Things star David Harbour taking on the lead role alongside Ian McShane (American Gods) as Professor Bruttenholm, Sasha Lane (American Honey) as Alice Monaghan, Milla Jovovich (Resident Evil) as the Queen of Blood, Daniel Dae Kim (Hawaii Five-O) as Major Ben Daimio and Penelope Mitchell (The Vampire Diaries) as Ganeida.
