Millennium Media is producing the new movie alongside Dark Horse Entertainment.

Brian Taylor is an expert across the board, and I couldn’t think of a better person to bring this story to life to show our audience this different and original Hellboy slate of films.” “This is the first in the series of films that will captivate audiences in familiar (and new) ways. “ The Crooked Man is a departure from all previous Hellboy films where Mike Mignola and the creator of the comics will finally shepherd an authentic version of his stories and characters in film form,” said Millennium Media’s President Jeffrey Greenstein. Of particular note, Hellboy creator Mike Mignola wrote the script for Hellboy: The Crooked Man alongside Christopher Golden, which gives this project serious credibility. There, they discover a small community haunted by witches, led by a local devil with a troubling connection to Hellboy’s past: the Crooked Man.” “The new film will see Hellboy and a rookie BPRD agent stranded in 1950s rural Appalachia. The story is said to “expand Hellboy’s world through one of the most beloved issues of the comic series.”

Production is starting next month in Bulgaria, Deadline reports.
