I would really love to know how this movie got greenlit? LG just completely desperate for any piece of the CBM pie I guess? 

Rebooting a series that really only had a cult fanbase (much of which would be lost without the director) and whose two movies didn't even do very well at the box office is definitely logic I need to hear. Unless this movie actually cost like $30M, which is probably not the case, this was never a good bet.

For LG project, one key is too look how difficult and for how much you can sales it overseas before starting to shoot it.

 

Some name awareness a la Robin Hood or this can really help them a lot to do that, a franchise that made 160m the last entry in a extremely popular genre.

 

I would imagine they financed 5 to 20% of it.

If this Hellboy was released the same year as the original, this would’ve been an excellent product FOR THE TIME. Hell, this would’ve been awesome considering its violence and gore, which was unconventional back then. You did have R-rated comic book movies, such as Blade and Punisher, but as far as bloodshed goes, this pushes the envelope. Yet, we’re in 2019 and this is releasing two weeks before Avengers: Endgame and you present your audience with effects on par with God of War from the PS2 era
