By Millennium Media and Ketchup Entertainment have released the first trailer for “Hellboy: The Crooked Man,” the clip arriving just over a year after the project wrapped production in Bulgaria.
In the live-action film, Hellboy (Jack Kesy) and a rookie BPRD agent (Adeline Rudolph) are stranded in 1950s rural Appalachia. There, they discover a small community haunted by witches and led by a local devil with a troubling connection to Hellboy’s past – the Crooked Man.
Said man is Jeremiah Witkins, an 18th-century miser and war profiteer hanged for his crimes yet returned from Hell as the region’s resident Devil.
For the first time in the franchise to date, original creator Mike Mignola has penned the script alongside his Dark Horse comics collaborator Chris Golden. Jefferson White, Joseph Marcell, Hannah Margetson and Martin Bassindale co-star.
Brian Taylor (“Crank”) directs the film, which offers a smaller focus story than either the two beloved Guillermo del Toro-directed “Hellboy” features in 2004 and 2008 starring Ron Perlman, or the widely panned 2019 reboot helmed by Neil Marshall and starring David Harbour.
