Hellboy The Crooked Man – Plot, Release Date, Cast and many more.
Ketchup Entertainment has unveiled the first cinematic trailer for its upcoming reboot of the Hellboy film series, titled Hellboy: The Crooked Man. The new film appears to lean more heavily into the horror aspects of the original comic, compared to the more fantasy-oriented previous films.
The trailer was released at San Diego Comic-Con, a few weeks after a trailer first hinted at the new direction the franchise is taking. Revealing this tonal shift in San Diego makes a lot of sense because convention-going audiences are always going to be more receptive to these kinds of creative leaps.
What is Hellboy The Crooked Man about?
“This film tells a chilling story of survival against the forces of darkness,” reads the official synopsis. “Set in the 1950s, rookie B.P.R.D. agent Bobbie Jo Song finds herself in a desperate situation when she is assigned to deliver a spider to the Bureau of Paranormal Research and Defense. She must enlist the help of Hellboy to take on the evil Crooked Man, who has returned to Earth to harvest souls for the devil.”
The film is directed by Brian Taylor, who previously made Crank in 2006, Gamer in 2009, Crank: High Voltage in 2009, and Ghost Rider: Spirit of Vengeance in 2011 with Mark Neveldine. As a solo director, Taylor made Mom and Dad in 2017 and several episodes of the Syfy series Happy! Also read – Irish Singer Sinead O’Connor’s exact cause of death has finally out
