Mike Mignola, the creator of HELLBOY, claims that a third film in the franchise is most likely not happening, reports The Daily Blam! Red’s first two adventures, 2004’s HELLBOY and 2008’s HELLBOY II: THE GOLDEN ARMY, were of course both written and directed by the extremely talented (yet foul mouthed) Guillermo del Toro.Mignola was in attendance at the Calgary Expo over the weekend to discuss HB’s comic adventures, where he also was questioned about when we might again see some HELLBOY action on the silver screen.
'Last I heard he said he would not make it. Guillermo -- who I love -- in every interview there's a new story on what his next movie is and he honestly believes he's going to do all these things. But last I heard, he said 'I'm never gonna get back to Hellboy. I'm not surprised because he won't live long enough to do a tenth of the movies he's told me he's going to make.”
Mignola is referring to the extreme filmmaking load that Del Toro has attached himself, including but not limited to an update of FRANKENSTEIN, SLAUGHTERHOUSE-FIVE, Disney’s HAUNTED MANSION 3D reboot, and his expected next, PACIFIC RIM (which may have just cast Charlie Day).
With all these projects on his plate, it does seem unlikely that del Toro would ever find time for another HELLBOY picture and even more unlikely that a studio would finance such a sequel without del Toro shepherding it through the incredibly selective green light process.
