Hellboy Returns: New Trailer Shows Off Big Red in “The Crooked Man”

Get ready for some monster mayhem! The first trailer has arrived for “Hellboy: The Crooked Man,” the newest movie based on the popular comic book character. This time around, actor Jack Kesy takes on the role of Hellboy, the demon-human hybrid who fights for the good guys.

New Face, Same Big Red Right Hand

This isn’t the first time we’ve seen Hellboy on the big screen. Ron Perlman played him in two movies back in the early 2000s, and David Harbour took over for a 2019 reboot. But those were different Hells. “The Crooked Man” is a whole new adventure, with a fresh take on the character by Kesy.

Trading City Lights for Country Spooks

The trailer shows Hellboy in a new setting too. Instead of the dark alleys and cityscapes of past movies, this Hellboy is headed to the Appalachian Mountains. It looks like things are going to get a lot more creepy this time around.

The trailer opens with a spooky voice saying, “Dark things call to dark things.” Then, we see a dark forest with mist rolling through the trees. Hellboy walks through, his giant red right hand ready for action, and says, “This place smells like death.”

A Mystery to Unravel

We don’t get a whole lot of details about the plot from the trailer, but it looks like Hellboy is on the hunt for something evil. We see creepy crawlies, strange symbols, and people in danger. There’s even a shot of a woman being strangled by a giant snake!

Going Back to the Roots

The trailer hints that “The Crooked Man” might be a scarier movie than past Hellboy films. It feels more like a classic monster movie, with a dark atmosphere and a sense of mystery. This could be a good thing for fans of the comics, which are known for their horror elements.

Following the Comic Book

“The Crooked Man” is actually based on a specific Hellboy story from the comics. It’s a mini-series written by Hellboy creator Mike Mignola himself, so you know it’s going to be good.

A Chance to Reboot

The 2019 Hellboy movie wasn’t a big hit with critics or audiences. So, “The Crooked Man” is kind of a second chance for the franchise. With a new actor, a new director, and a new story, it has the potential to be a much better movie.

Will It Be Hellboy’s Time to Shine?

We’ll have to wait and see if “The Crooked Man” can live up to the hype. But the trailer gives us a good reason to be excited. A fresh take on a beloved character, a creepy new setting, and a story based on the comics – this could be the Hellboy movie fans have been waiting for.

So, keep an eye out for “Hellboy: The Crooked Man.” It’s coming to theaters later this year, and it looks like it’s going to be a monster of a good time!
