Well folks, this is it. After years of back and forth chatter and speculation, director Guillermo del Toro has broken our geeky hearts and admitted that Hellboy 3 just isn't going to happen. In a recent Reddit AMA session, he said,
“Well, you know, we don’t have that movie on the horizon, but the idea for it was to have Hellboy finally come to terms with the fact that his destiny, his inevitable destiny, is to become the beast of the Apocalypse, and having him and Liz face the sort of, that part of his nature, and he has to do it, in order to be able to ironically vanquish the foe that he has to face in the 3rd film. He has to become the best of the Apocalypse to be able to defend humanity, but at the same time he becomes a much darker being. It’s a very interesting ending to the series, but I don’t think it will happen.”

So, that about settles it. Despite a great idea, a passionate director, and a star more than willing to don the big red hand and sawed-off horns, Hellboy 3 just isn't going to happen. Now, there's obviously always a chance that someday, maybe, things will change, but I wouldn't count on it.

Good. The way it ended in the second one was enough for me not to want a 3rd. I don't want to watch a movie about hellboy his girlfriend and little hell kids.

Could've been one of the best trilogies in a CBM ever. Sounds like very good stuff, loved the characters and make-up for them as well. smh

Why a Pacific Rim sequel no one wants instead of the trilogy capper a lot of fans do want?

Well this is disappointing. It was expected but it still stings. Hopefully Justice League Dark still happens. Plus Mountains of Madness too. But more so JLD. I wonder how poor Leviticus is taking the news?

Well, speaking of mech movies, did anybody hear about Power Rangers Movie Reboot Cast: Chloe Grace Moretz Confirmed As Pink Ranger? 'Hit Girl' Says She's Excited To Be Kimberly Hart!? Is there any truth to this? The rumored cast sounds a lot more like a fancast than anything else. If true though, we have a lot more race bending arguments to come courtesy of Michael B. Jordan who is alledged to be the Green Ranger.

I don't believe it though...

TheMexicanSuperman... Sure i don't know on the point in how much goes to the cinema and all that kind of stuff. But not made lot of money?

Hellboy 1 did around 100 million ww and had a budget of 66 (does not know if Boxofficemojo count in marketing) http://www.boxofficemojo.com/movies/?id=hellboy.htm

Hellboy II The Golden Army did 160 million worldwide and a budget (not knowing again if boxoffice count in marketing) 86 millions

The movie made more then the previous, but you could maybe dissqualife that because of its higher budget i don't know.

It's a shame that's what it is. Such a shame. Honestly I think Hellboy would do better today than it did back a few years ago.
