Earlier today during the "FilmDistrict" panel at San Diego Comic-Con, fans quizzed both Guillermo Del Toro And Ron Perlman about the possibility of a third instalment in the
Hellboy franchise. While there don't seem to be any immediate plans, neither the director of lead actor are ruling out once again bringing the character to the big screen. Here is an excerpt from
The Playlist's report.
"'Hellboy 2' was tough. Both of us walked away from that a little bit, 'Do I ever want to revisit this?' But then with the luxury of time and looking at it in an objectified way...We were beat up at the end of it," Perlman said. "He always looked at it as a trilogy and there were things that were unresolved. So for us to not make it would be letting down people who invested in the first two. It’s epic what he wants to do, but it would be cinematic and well worth doing."
And Del Toro echoes the sentiments of the franchise star. "Each of those moves has been an incredible ordeal to make. The third one is the hardest one because it’s the darkest one...And if it’s not Ron, I don’t want to make it. The third one is epic, it’s gigantic."
