INTERVIEW

Del Toro on "Hellboy 2"
I start writing it in the Fall and then it'll depend on how fast we get a script we're all happy about and how fast we can work out a budget and a date. It's in the future, but I wouldn't put a date on it. In the next Hellboy adventure he'll (Hyde-Pierce's Abe Sapien) have a more prominent role. She'll be back (Blair). Jeffrey Tambor will be back. We will have a good class of weirdos around.

Awwwww hell yea!!! 😱 The first movie was awsome, more action in the second one will make excellenty!!

I think Hellboy sucked as a movie. The characters were sort of dull and the story was crap.

If not for the action...it would have been better to not make the film at all.

It will be nice to see more creatures like Abe and Hellboy in the second film as well.

Hellboy was ok...the character list was kinda dry...

My only complaint about the first film was the ending and the fact that Abe didn't have too much screen time but thats all.

he doesnt need screentime. he never does anything interesting...

Thats because they didn't give him enough things to do during the film like fight scenes or anything like that.

Hellboy 2 has been in works since before the original came out earlier this year. Hellboy 2 will be out probably around the same time Spider-Man 3 is out. The actors/actresses of Hellboy have aleady signed on for 2 sequels so I've heard.

Spider-Man 3 will be released May 2007. I think that Hellboy 2 will probably be released in 2006.

I'm not that familiar with all that is Hellboy. I saw the movie and liked it and have read a few comics but have yet to go full depth into it. Are there any other "freaks" that they encounter and enlist into the BPRD?

I liked the first Hellboy. Sure, it isn't the best movie in this superhero craze but it certainly isn't the worst. I think a second one is a good idea. I agree that Abe Sapien wasn't in enough of the movie.

he doesnt fight...he just uses his psychic powers

True but he can still attack his enemy somehow even it is with his mind but he didn't do that in the first.

"Hellboy" also topped Video Store magazine's list of top rentals for the week, followed by "Yards." Universal Studios Home Video's "Ned Kelly" was the only other new rental title to crack the top 20; the Heath Ledger-Orlando Bloom starrer bowed at No. 16.

Meanwhile, ComingSoon.net is listing the Hellboy Director's Cut DVD for a an October 19 release date. Stay tuned for more on that!

UK sucks man, Hellboy came out April 1st in the States. It's not even out in the cinemas here yet.

Perlman & Blair on the Hellboy Sequel

Wednesday, August 25, 2004

OutNow.CH had the chance to talk to Ron Perlman and Selma Blair during their promotional stay in Zurich/Switzerland. In Selma Blair's interview she talked about the sequel...

ON: Are you going to be in part two of Hellboy as well?
SB: Yes. I will be in part two! How can I not be, you evil man? Liz has her strengths finally. She would better be in part two! I'm signing on to do it and I think we are shooting in one year. Probably in Prague, maybe Berlin even.

ON: Can you tell us already something about the storyline?
SB: Top secret. I swore myself to secrecy. I think it's going to be very beautiful. And Liz is going to be much more powerful in this one. She has to be. She sure didn't bust out a lot of moves in the last one in the end.

Perlman, on the other hand, says that he's being kept in the dark...

ON: But Part two of Hellboy seems to be settled already. Can you tell us something about it?
RP: They don't let any of their secrets out on me. I think that they really regard me as this 14-year old irresponsible adolescent, who the minute is told a secret to, is just going to be blabber all out on the internet. I'll probably find out about it, as we are shooting.

Hey alpha dont be sad. Order it from play.com like i did 😄 I also got the whole ten yards from there, also not out in the UK ❌

HellBoy was really entertaining, I laughed to his one sentence jokes and it had some nice action to it. Don't worry about Abe he's getting more screen time in the second movie, he'll play a bigger part and so will the flamegirl. perlman is just the right guy for the role, and he makes the character fun to watch. hellboy is been a much better success then expected, and I want my DVD of it also.
