HELLBOY Producer Says They Are Playing Around With the Possibility of a TV Series

As you know, an attempt was made in 2019 to reboot the Hellboy franchise, and it did not go very well. The movie was pretty awful, and it completely bombed at the box office. It’s a shame that’s how it all went down because it had potential. In the end, they should’ve just let Guillermo del Toro make his Hellboy III.

There’s a chance that we may not have seen the last attempt to adapt the Hellboy franchise as Millennium Media president Jeffrey Greenstein, who was also a producer on the 2019 film, revealed that the company is exploring their options of getting into TV. One of the show ideas they are considering is Hellboy. He said:

"Our focus has always been on feature film, we do have a slate of TV that we're developing. But my plan is to focus on our IP within the TV space and build out Has Fallen TV, Rambo TV, Expendables TV. We're playing around with Hellboy TV. So there are lots of opportunities, but I really want to launch something IP-driven first before we start developing original content. But we also have Undisputed television, from the MMA action franchise, which we're working on launching soon and would like to shoot next year"

Mike Mignola’s Hellboy is such a great character, and there’s so much story to explore there. I would love to see a kickass Hellboy series. I think a series would work so much better for the property than film because you can take a deep dive into the story and actually really be able to explore the characters in a way you can’t do in a two-hour movie.

I’m totally open to a Hellboy series, and if they do move forward with the idea, I hope they bring on a talented creative team to bring it to life. Hell, I would love to see a Hellboy animated series!
