New Look: David Harbour’s Hellboy

Last Updated on July 30, 2021

Director Neil Marshall's upcoming HELLBOY reboot starring David Harbour as the titular red guy is all set to punch its ungodly way into a theater near you this coming April. And if you just can't get enough sneak peeks then today you're in luck as Empire has just dropped an all-new look at Harbour's Hellboy, which you can check out below.

I'm super-excited for this reboot, even if original Ron Perlman still finds it to be an open wound. But all the same, Marshall has said the film will be gritty, bloody and hard-R and I can't wait to see what they come up with. Speaking of which, here's what Marshall had to say on the matter.

Marshall:

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.

Written by Andrew Cosby, Christopher Golden, Aron Coleite, and Hellboy creator Mike Mignola, this one finds 

Hellboy, along with his team of paranormal researchers, trying to save the world from a medieval sorceress who wants to destroy humankind. 

Church and Harbour's co-stars include Milla Jovovich as the villainous Nimue, Queen of Blood, Ian McShane as Hellboy's mentor Professor Broom, Sasha Lane as his love interest Alice Monaghan, Penelope Mitchell as the elder witch Ganeida, Daniel Dae Kim as Major Ben Daimio (who can turn into a jaguar), Sophie Okonedo as the seer Lady Hatton, Alistair Petrie as Lord Adam Glaren of the supernatural mystery investigating Osiris Club, and Brian Gleeson as the wizard Merlin. The HELLBOY reboot recently got pushed back from a January release date to April 12, 2019.
