A new poster for Neil Marshall’s Hellboy has Big Red looking legendary AF

Last Updated on August 2, 2021

Before director Neil Marshall's HELLBOY makes its way from the bowels of the B.P.R.D. facility and into New York City Comic Con this Saturday at 11 a.m., Entertainment Weekly has unveiled a new poster for the upcoming Lionsgate film. The new poster features Hellboy (played by STRANGER THINGS alum David Harbour) with his massive demon horns intact, brandishing a flaming sword while looking on from inside an all-consuming hellscape. Harbour himself looks jacked AF in the new promotional art, which even includes a solid look at Big Red's signature gauntlet. While it will take seeing Harbour in action to know for sure, I feel like the effects department have outdone themselves in getting the look of the monster hunter's to appear mighty close to comic book perfection.

Based on the graphic novel series created by Mike Mignola, HELLBOY will find the kitten pettin', pancake lovin' hellspawn up against an ancient sorceress, known to many as The Blood Queen (Milla Jovovich), who wants revenge on humankind.

When HELLBOY comes to New York City Comic Con, the panel for the upcoming film is set to overtake the Javit's Center's main stage. Attending the panel will be Harbour, Ian McShane (who play's Hellboy's adoptive father Professor Bruttenholm), Daniel Dae Kim (who stars as an undead Marine captain named Ben Daimio), Sasha Lane (playing Alice Monaghan, a human woman Hellboy once rescued from fairies), and Mignola, who debuted the character in the pages of San Diego Comic-Con Comics #2 in August of 1993. The panel is set to be moderated by Entertainment Weekly's Clark Collis.

Is that brimstone I smell, or the promise of an NYCC trailer premiere? We'll know for sure later this week, and will definitely be bringing you the goods as soon as we're able. Stay tuned, folks.

HELLBOY will arrive in theaters on April 12, 2019.
