Guillermo del Toro, who directed and co-wrote the upcoming sequel "Hellboy II: The Golden Army," told Sci Fi Wire that he and Hellboy creator Mike Mignola set up the new movie so that it lays the groundwork for a possible third installment. But if there isn't a third film, the movie also effectively closes out the story, he added.
"The way Mike and I did approach this was, when we were told, 'Think about something, if you want, for a sequel,' we went away and said, 'Let's talk about it,'" del Toro said in an interview. "Do we want to continue the story?' We did the first one saying, 'That's it. It's a self-concluding story.' And I said, 'Let's come up with an arc that makes sense for us for the second and third movie.'"
In the new film, the Bureau for Paranormal Research and Defense team--Hellboy (Ron Perlman), Liz Sherman (Selma Blair), Abe Sapien (Doug Jones) and Johann--jumps to action when the truce is broken between mankind and the invisible realm of the fantastic. A greedy, merciless figure (Luke Goss) seizes the opportunity to try to take over the Earth.
"We said, 'This is the story. This is how we end in the third movie,'" del Toro said. "And then I went in and wrote a self-conclusive screenplay [for the second movie]. So if there's never a third one, I'm perfectly at peace."
