Funny man Mitch Hyman wears a lot of hats, writer, actor, comic book creator, and expert story teller. He sat down with me to catch up and talk about what has been happening with him since our last interview back in 2016.

After years of hoping and dreaming fans had their hearts broken when Guillermo del Toro broke the news that there is zero chances of a third Hellboy film. While we know that we will never see Hellboy in a new story-line from del Toro, we haven’t seen the last of the big red guy. Mike Mignola, the creator of the Hellboy comic, took to social media to announce that Neil Marshall will be directing a reboot of Hellboy. He went on to reveal the Stranger Things actor David Harbour will be playing the lead character. Marshall has a great reputation in horror already. He’s behind Dog Soldiers and The Descent. He has also directed episodes of stellar series like Game of Thrones, Hannibal, and Westworld. I have to admit, I’m a little excited, but apprehensive at the same time. I don’t know how anyone could fill Ron Perlman’s shoes. I will always see him as Hellboy.
