Fans were originally skeptical when they learned that a new Hellboy was in the works. The reason, Guillermo del Toro and Ron Perlman, who is the original Hellboy, are not involved. But the more we learn the more our interest is peaked. Mike Mignola, who created the character and co-wrote the new film, recently made a statement about what fans can expect from the movie. Andrew Cosby and Christopher Golden co-wrote the screenplay with Mignola. Well, I mean, if anything, we’re trying to do something very different. Basically, there’s no part of Hellboy that was ever going to be like other superhero movies. And the more Marvel stuff there is the more DC stuff there is, Hellboy never really feels like, even in the [Guillermo] del Toro things, a superhero movie.

Harbour will star along with Penelope Mitchell (The Vampire Diaries), Ian McShane (American Gods), Milla Jovovich (Resident Evil), Daniel Dae Kim(Hawaii 5-0) and Sasha Lane (American Honey). Aron Coleite was the last to work on the script penned by Andrew Cosby, Christopher Golden, and ‘Hellboy’ creator Mike Mignola.

The cast of Neil Marshall’s Hellboy: Rise of the Blood Queen is beginning to take shape. Last week, it was announced that ‘American Gods’ actor Ian McShane had signed for the film featuring David Harbour as Hellboy. Today, we have more casting news. It has now been revealed that Milla Jovovich has been cast as the villain of the film, the Red Queen. Jovovich has long played Alice, the hero of the long running Resident Evil franchise whose last sequel, Resident Evil: The Final Chapter, opened in theaters this past January. It is an interesting coincidence that Jovovich came face to face with the A.I. that ran by the Umbrella Corporation’s tasks in Resident Evil, its name, the Red Queen. The two queens are not connected in the film world, they simply have the same name. In Rise of the Red Queen, Hellboy will face off against a medieval sorceress who seeks to destroy humankind. The film which is aiming
