SPIDER-MAN 3 Star Thomas Haden Church Joins The HELLBOY Reboot In A Key Role
Thomas Haden Church played the Sandman well over a decade ago in Spider-Man 3 and the actor has now revealed that he's joined the cast of the upcoming Hellboy reboot. Find out who he's playing here...
Earlier this year, Thomas Haden Church revealed that he had shot a role in an upcoming superhero movie but it wasn't for Marvel or DC! Instead, it's now been revealed by Discussing Film that the Spider-Man 3 star has landed the part of Lobster Johnson in the upcoming Hellboy reboot.
This marks the character's live-action debut; while he was expected to appear in Hellboy II: The Golden Army, that didn't end up happening and so fans of the character will no doubt appreciate seeing him in what is so far shaping up to be a movie which should make fans of Mike Mignola's Dark Horse comic book series very happy indeed.
Unfortunately, early word from test screenings is not good but there is time to change that.
In the source material, The Lobster was a series of comic and serials in the 1930s but the public didn't realise that the real Lobster Johnson was out there battling monsters and Nazis alike. A childhood hero of Hellboy, they end up meeting in the present day courtesy of the Bureau for Paranormal Research. Are you guys looking forward to checking out the movie next April?
