Ketchup Entertainment has released a new trailer for Hellboy: The Crooked Man, the upcoming reboot of the popular franchise that stars Jack Kesy as the titular character.
“This film brings a chilling tale of survival against the forces of darkness,” the official synopsis reads. “Set in the 1950s, rookie BPRD agent Bobbie Jo Song finds herself in a dire situation when tasked with delivering a spider to the Bureau of Paranormal Research and Defense. She must enlist the help of Hellboy to confront the malevolent Crooked Man, who has returned to Earth to harvest souls for the devil.”
The film is directed by Brian Taylor , who previously made 2006’s Crank, 2009’s Crank: High Voltage, 2009’s Gamer, and 2011’s Ghost Rider: Spirit of Vengeance with Mark Neveldine. As a solo director, Taylor made 2017’s Mom and Dad and several episodes of Syfy’s Happy! series.
Along with Kesy as Hellboy, the movie stars Adeline Rudolph as Bobbie Jo Song, Jefferson White as Tom Ferrel, Leah McNamara, Joseph Marcell, Hannah Margetson, and Martin Bassindale.
“His intention is to make a horror movie, so that’ll be nice. That’ll be interesting,” Hellboy creator Mike Mignola said of Taylor and co-writer Chris Golden when speaking to Variety about the film. “It’s the first Hellboy script that I read and I went, ‘Oh, it’s a horror movie,’ which is what I wanted. Taylor does not have a reputation as a horror movie director. But, so far, we’ve had two horror movie directors make Hellboy movies and we’ve never gotten a horror movie.”
Hellboy: The Crooked Man will be released in 2024 from Ketchup Entertainment.
