HELLBOY Reboot Starring David Harbour Has Officially Been Rated "R"
Despite the goofy tone in the first teaser trailer, it's now been confirmed that the upcoming Hellboy reboot will indeed be R-Rated. Why? Well, you can find out the reason for that after the jump...
The first Hellboy trailer had something of an R.I.P.D. vibe to it but we've been hearing a lot of talk about Neil Marshall's reboot being a lot darker and more violent that Guillermo del Toro's efforts.
Bear in mind that they were both PG-13 but, as you can see below, it's now been confirmed that this version will indeed be R-Rated. Following that teaser's debut, star David Harbour was quick to point out that his take on Hellboy will be a killer and it's now clear he wasn't exaggerating!
A new trailer is expected to arrive soon, and it will be interesting to see how Lionsgate responds to the fan-reaction to that first teaser.
Regardless, with bloody violence and gore throughout (along with strong language), it's clear that this incarnation of Hellboy will be taking a very different approach and that's either going to pay off in a big way...or be Deadpool-Lite. What do you guys think?
