Hellboy

Sony Pictures and Revolution Studios have unleashed the new trailer for writer/director Guillermo del Toro's Hellboy. The comic book adaptation, starring Ron Perlman, Doug Jones, Selma Blair, John Hurt and Rupert Evans, hits theaters on April 2.

You can now get a look at the trailer in the much better-quality QuickTime format here! The trailer will also be in theaters with The Missing, opening on Wednesday.

Born in the flames of hell, and brought to our world in a pagan ritual, the fierce red hero, Hellboy (Perlman), was saved by his friend and mentor, the benevolent Dr. Broom (Hurt). Raised in Broom's Bureau for Paranormal Research and Defense, Hellboy joins the likes of the "Mer-Man" Abe Sapien, Liz Sherman (Blair), the woman he loves who can psychically control fire, and Myers, the FBI agent who is his rival for Liz's affections. Together, our heroes must come to terms with fantastic powers that prove to be both a blessing and a curse. In the process they discover that their abilities serve to benefit mankind but may also keep them forever isolated from the society that only they can protect.
