Selma Blair Heartbroken Over Hellboy Reboot

Two months back we passed along the news that new Hellboy star David Harbour (“Stranger Things”) said Neil Marshall’s upcoming reboot was going to be a “real monster movie that’s dark and scary.”

That news had us all but jumping for joy over here at the Dread Central offices, but today’s news is a little bit sad. Especially considering how much we love the actress in question.

Turns out original Hellboy and Hellboy 2 star Selma Blair is pretty unenthusiastic about the new film, telling Cinema Blend recently that she is heartbroken.

“God, you know, people are fans of Hellboy and also fans of Guillermo,” Blair said. “So part of us, the ones that were so loyal to Guillermo, our hearts are broken that it didn’t work out with the greatest third installment ever written that I wish I could play more than anything in the world. But I truly hope that Mike Mignola has his vision out there for the darker Hellboy come to light, and I’m sure he will, and David Harbour is excellent and everyone involved, but no my heart is broken.”

Aww, poor Selma Blair. I genuinely think she is a killer actress and speaking of which, make sure to check her out in the new flick Mom and Dad now on VOD.

Mom and Dad is written and directed by Brian Taylor and stars Nicolas Cage, Selma Blair, Anne Winters, Zackary Arthur, and Lance Henriksen.

Synopsis:

A pitch-black horror-comedy about a worldwide mass hysteria where, for 24 brutal hours, parents turn violently against their own children. Your parents brought you into this world, and they most certainly can take you out of it… even if they have to hunt you down first.
