More From Guillermo Del Toro On Hellboy 3!

The director talks about whether he'd use his ideas for Hellboy 3 in any other format other than live action and says he'll reveal the story but only if you force it out of him...

"Mike Mignola had a very wise position," Del Toro told MTV News. "He said, 'Look, we have the animated universe, we have the comic book universe, and we have the movie universe, and we have managed to keep them all separate. The rules that we have created don't mix. To bring the movie Hellboy into comics is to confuse the mythology. I would like that to stay in the movies."

"I can't agree or disagree with the creator," he laughed. "He's the creator."

"What I promise is, if you corral me at any signing and you say, 'Tell me the story of Hellboy 3!' I'll tell it to you in two minutes. But I think I can look forward to being 85 and being a campfire storyteller and saying, 'And then Hellboy...'"

85 at a campfire telling the story of HB3, doesn't give me great hopes of seeing it made.

Why not just show them the dvd, 85 year old GDT?

If they make the movie: I want Liz to miscarry and I want them to do some kind of EPIC apocalyptic mission.

I wish he would at least complete the third animated Hellboy. At the end of Blood and Iron, there was a teaser featuring Lobster Johnson.

But like everyone else, I want the freaking live-action version most of all.

I would love to see another live-action Hellboy movie. I've thoroughly enjoyed both of these highly entertaining films.

I love this guy. One of the greatest living directors.

My Del Toro Wish List:

Dr. Strange
Hellboy 3
Mountains of Madness
Diablo (based on the video game)

Really, just wish they'd make him the godfather of the whole supernatural side of the Marvel universe, alla' Nolan at DC.

You know I like Del Toro's visual style, but story wise, he has far more misses than hits. Hellboy 2 was very weak and not nearly as good as the first movie. The drawn out singing, the constant build up to nothing, the rushed ending, the hack writing. I think he gets way to much credit for having not really done anything landmark yet.

@grayfox117 - High Five!

@airbeyonder18 - Really? Well, not to resort to name calling, but I'm gonna say you're a tasteless idiot. No, that's to harsh. You might have good taste in some areas. How about this? I hate to tell you this, but I think you have something wrong with your brain that prevents you from recognizing true fantasy film making genius. Just and opinion.

@ToddCasil - Hellboy 2 did have some structural issues, but have you seen Pan's Labyrinth? The Devil's Backbone? MAN! Those films are so good.

In the time we're waiting, we could have a good BRPD series with Del Toro producing. It'd beat CSI and other crap. X-files was gone and then everything got lamer.

I think the issue is that Ron Perlman is a bit tired of the 6 hour make-up job (he is 60 years old), and Del Toro won't do it without him (and rightly so). As for the storyline, I heard him mention some time ago that he wanted to bring the Universal Monsters into the Hellboy universe, but it certainly could be something entirely different

Del Toro has said that he wants Bruce Campbell for Lobster Johnson in Hellboy 3, and there have been rumours that the story will involve angels and Nazis. It sounds excellent. Much better than that Trollhunter nonsense he's supposed to be directing straight after At the Mountains of Madness.
