Eventually, Universal started talking about this current Hellboy reboot, which put a pin in the Abe Sapien spin-off movie once again.
Peter Briggs wrote the original Hellboy movie and, after the news of the reboot broke, he took to his Facebook page to talk about the Abe Sapien movie, which would have been centered on Doug Jones’ character.
With the announcement of the Neil Marshall “Hellboy” reboot project yesterday, I think it’s safe to say “Silverlance” is now officially dead.
The aquatic Abe Sapien was the main character, and Hellboy still featured fairly prominently in it.
