Fans had been clamoring for Hellboy 3 for years, with Ron Perlman and Guillermo del Toro returning, but that never took shape.
Splash Report broke the news on Hellboy finding a new home today, although it isn’t clear when this deal may be finalized.
The first Hellboy movie was released theatrically in 2004 by Sony’s Revolution studios, where it earned just $59.6 million domestically and $99.3 million worldwide, from a $66 million budget.
It’s also possible that Lionsgate may announce their distribution deal at Comic-Con in a few weeks, if they can get it finalized by then.
