Release date July 11
yet another movie I am looking forward to…
You can see the newest trailer “here”.
The mythical world starts a rebellion against humanity in order to rule the Earth, so as Hellboy and his team returns they must save the world from the rebellious creatures. Now, as the creatures who inhabit the spiritual realm gear-up for an all out attack on the human plane, the only one capable of saving the Earth is a tough-talking hellspawn rejected by both worlds.

Below is Ron “as he is”… and I have to tell you about the one time I saw him at a convention.. it was in NY and I was there to see DeForest. This was a big convention of Sci-Fi/ Fantasy and so it had many guests. One was Ron Perlman. Ron was to do what all the guests do, which is to be on stage for about an hour. Give a little talk and then open the floor to questions and answers. Well…….. Ron did this. He also stayed on stage for not one hour but TWO hours until he answered every possible question anyone could ask!! He was a really nice person and went overboard for the fans. I wouldn’t mind seeing him again at a convention, but I doubt that he does them anymore. The old convention that I saw him at, he was still doing them for his role as Vincent in Beauty and the Beast.. it had gotten (and still has) a large fan base.
I’m glad that he is now making many new fans for his part as Hellboy. He’s worked hard and deserves all the accolades he can get.
