First Look: Hellboy: The Crooked Man Trailer Unveiled




A new Hellboy is ready to bump back against things that go bump in the night! Ketchup Entertainment has just released the first trailer for "Hellboy: The Crooked Man," giving fans a sneak peek at Jack Kesy (12 Strong) as the iconic character. The trailer surfaced online this morning, and it's already generating buzz among Hellboy enthusiasts.


The film, co-written by Hellboy creator Mike Mignola and Christopher Golden, is set in the 1950s. It features Adeline Rudolph (Resident Evil) as a rookie agent of the BPRD (Bureau of Paranormal Research and Defense) who teams up with Hellboy to protect the residents of Appalachia from the eerie Crooked Man, a sinister figure collecting souls for the devil.


Directed by Brian Taylor (Crank, Gamer, Ghost Rider: Spirit of Vengeance, Mom and Dad), the movie is based on a Hellboy mini-series from 2008. The story aims to expand Hellboy’s world through one of the most beloved issues of the comic series. The cast includes Jefferson White (Yellowstone) as Tom Ferrel, Leah McNamara as Effie Kolb, Joseph Marcell as Reverend Watts, Hannah Margetson as Cora Fisher, and Martin Bassindale as the Crooked Man, among others.

Taylor has described "Hellboy: The Crooked Man" as an R-rated folk horror movie. “The Crooked Man is a departure from all previous Hellboy films where Mike Mignola and the creator of the comics will finally shepherd an authentic version of his stories and characters in film form,” said Millennium Media’s President Jeffrey Greenstein. “This is the first in the series of films that will captivate audiences in familiar (and new) ways. Brian Taylor is an expert across the board, and I couldn’t think of a better person to bring this story to life to show our audience this different and original Hellboy slate of films.”



Millennium Media is producing the new movie alongside Dark Horse Entertainment.
