Actor Selma Blair has said she
felt 'heartbroken' with 'Hellboy' series getting a reboot. The actor played the
pyrokinetic Liz Sherman in Guillermo del Toro's 'Hellboy' and 'Hellboy II: The
Golden Army', that had Ron Perlman essaying the titular character.
"God, you know, people are fans of Hellboy and also fans of
Guillermo," Blair told media. "So part of us, the ones that were so
loyal to Guillermo, our hearts are broken that it didn't work out with the
greatest third installment ever written that I wish I could play more than
anything in the world," she added.
The reboot has been titled 'Hellboy: Rise of the Blood Queen' and
will have star David Harbour in the titular role. The film will be directed by
Neil Marshall and the cast also includes Ian McShane and Milla Jovovich. Blair
also hoped that the reboot does justice to the 'vision' of Mike Mignola on
whose comics the new film is based on.
"I truly hope that Mike Mignola has his vision out there for
the darker Hellboy come to light, and I'm sure he will, and David Harbour is
excellent and everyone involved, but no my heart is broken," Blair said.
