First Hellboy: The Crooked Man Trailer Is Full Of Death, Demons, And Big Guns
Estimated reading time: 1 minute
The first trailer for Hellboy: The Crooked Man has gone live, and this time, Mike Mignola’s famed comic-book character is headed to the American South to take on sinister forces in the Appalachian mountains. 12 Strong’s Jack Kesy dons the signature duster and right hand of doom for this new adventure starring Hellboy, and the first trailer teases a film much creepier than previous Hellboy movies.
Imagine if Hellboy and the Bureau for Paranormal Research and Defense wandered into one of Sam Raimi’s Evil Dead movies, and you’ll have a good idea of what to expect in the trailer following its reveal on Entertainment Weekly.
Set in the 1950s, Hellboy: The Crooked Man is based on the comic-book mini-series of the same name and sees the BPRD agent tracking down a dangerous demon collecting souls for the devil. This is the first Hellboy film since 2019’s reboot bombed at the box office, ending any chances of a sequel being greenlit.
