Hellboy
David Harbour previously said Milla Jovovich is bad ass.
“She’s super bad-ass! I watched some of her coverage, and I was like, “Damn, you know how to work a camera!” Harbour told Collider. “There are people that understand the camera, and I’m not one of them. Man, she would do certain things, and I would just be riveted and like, ‘Wow, you are so sexy and exciting and powerful and crazy! I don’t know how to do that. That’s amazing!’”
Ian McShane also previously teased the relationship with his and Harbour’s character.
“You don’t start with the birth of Hellboy… but the relationship between [Hellboy and Broom] is quite crusty. Does he trust his father? [Hellboy asks], ‘Why didn’t you kill me? I’m a monster.’ It’s a little bit of a psychological battle against Hellboy,” McShane said. There’s one important moment in [the film] when [Hellboy] sort of thinks he’s fighting his own people, the outsiders. So, he’s being used by the insiders, which is me, if you like.”
Hellboy is directed by Neil Marshall starring Stranger Things’ David Harbour as the titular character, Milla Jovovich as Nimue the Blood Queen, Ian McShane as Professor Broom, Sasha Lane as Alice Monghan and Penelope Mitchell will play the role of Ganeida, an elder witch.
The film is said to be about Hellboy going to England, where he must defeat Nimue, Merlin’s consort and the Blood Queen. But their battle will bring about the end of the world, a fate he desperately tries to turn away.
