Hellboy Star David Harbour Confirms No Sequel Is in the Works
If you were one of the few Hellboy fans still holding out hope for a sequel to the reboot — ahem, much like myself — there's no need to try keeping your hopes up much longer. Hellboy lead David Harbour has confirmed with ComicBook.com that to his knowledge, Lionsgate isn't planning on doing a sequel anytime soon.
"I don't think there'll be much of a light," Harbour admits. "There's a lot of people who reach out to me who really loved it and really enjoyed the new take, and were just happy to see him back on the screen, but I know in the culture at large, I don't think it was very well received."
"I don't think it made a lot of money. I don't really keep up with those things too much to be honest, but I don't think the perception was that it was a hit, and so in that way, I don't know that the risk is worth it," the actor says. "I think the idea is to move on. The producers spoke to me just saying 'Great job,' they really liked what I did, but I haven't heard anything about a sequel, and I'm not hanging my hat on anything like that." (via comicbook.com)
