Viel neues gibt's zwar noch nicht, aber hier noch mal die bekannten Infos zum Hellboy II-Script zusammengefasst:
- Johann Krauss wird als neuer B.P.R.D.-Agent eingeführt.
- Hellboy wird nicht mehr im geheimen arbeiten sondern öffentlich bekannt sein.
- Ein neuer "Bad Guy" wird eingeführt.
- Teile der Handlung spielen in einer Art "Magischen Reich" aber (noch) nicht in der Hölle.
- Agent Myers wird einen Cameo-Auftritt haben.
- Ebenso der allseits beliebte Kroenen.
Und hier noch paar aktuelle Statements von der del Toro-Homepage (DelToroFilms.com):
Frage: The imdb lists Hellboy 2 as announced, does that mean Columbia has given the green light? Or is the imdb wrong? I think the money for the first one will be made back: even tough I wasn't in a full room in the theater, the audience laughed hard at all the right moments, which is something I don't experience often...
Guillermo del Toro: HELLBOY 2 has been approved for Screenplay writing. A budget will be generated and then we will know if it gets the “Green Light”
Revolution is very happy with it (in the US alone HELLBOY has shipped around 4.5 Million DVD units -DC included) and I, too, believe in it enough to commit exclusively to it as my next project right after Pan´s Labyrinth.
Frage: From what i get Pan's Labyrinth is your next movie, and after that a second Hellboy, but where is At the Mountains of Madness- still in perfecting a script right?
Guillermo del Toro: We actually turned in AtMoM already. That script took us 3 years to develop (started in 2001) and I think it is ready to shoot if we find the financing and/or Dreamworks approves it.
We'll see.
As noted before, Pan´s Labyrinth is still reeling from the blow it received a few weeks ago. Stay tuned.
As of now, I´m solely writing HELLBOY II. Every day, 9-5. That´s all I do.
Frage: Being the well-connected geek that you are, have you seen any of the early work on Mezco's Hellboy comic-book action figure line yet? And are you psyched about their choices? Gotta love the inclusion of the Kriegaffe...
Guillermo del Toro: In my book, Mezco can do no wrong with Hellboy. I LOVE THE GUYS!!
