HELLBOY's Milla Jovovich On The Blood Queen's Motivations In The Lionsgate Reboot
In a new interview, Blood Queen actress Milla Jovovich (Resident Evil) takes a deep dive into her demonic character's backstory and motivation in the upcoming Hellboy reboot from director Neil Marshall.
Just who is The Blood Queen and what's her motivation in the upcoming Hellboy reboot from Lionsgate? If you're unfamiliar with the Mike Mignola comic book, you're probably scratching your head.
Luckily, Milla Jovovich spills the beans to IGN, explaining, "The Blood Queen is literally the queen of the underworld in a sense. She is the mother of all of these creatures and monsters, she's been around for millennia."
She would also eventually explain the Blood Queen's powerset and why she's interested in the big red Bureau for Paranormal Research and Defense (B.P.R.D.) agent. "She's able to throw plague and sickness on people...The Blood Queen fixates on Hellboy as a potential king for balance. The two of them could rule the world."
The 2019 Hellboy reboot hits theaters an IMAX on April 12.
Based on the graphic novels by Mike Mignola, Hellboy, caught between the worlds of the supernatural and human, battles an ancient sorceress bent on revenge.
