HELLBOY RELEASE DATE SWITCH
From The Hollywood Reporter:
‘There also are films that were set for next summer, but that aren’t going to surface then. Revolution Studios and Columbia’s action adventure sci-fi horror film ‘Hellboy,’ set during World War II, is directed by Guillermo del Toro (‘Blade II’). It stars Ron Perlman in the title role as the demon child of Satan, born from a Nazi experiment that’s gone awry and results in him becoming a force for good not evil. At one point ‘Hellboy’ was penciled in for a May 21 release, but it’s now set for April 2. That looks like a very smart move when you consider how well Fox did earlier this year with its Feb. 14 release of the superhero action thriller ‘Daredevil’ starring Ben Affleck. ‘Daredevil’ opened to $45 million for four days and went on to gross $102.5 million domestically.’
‘Set during World War II’?!?! Oh, come on guys…do your research! But anyways, nice to see people confident in the release shift.
