Hellboy, Abe Sapien and Liz Sherman will be back for Hellboy 2: The Golden Army, confirms writer/director Guillermo del Toro.
"We definitely have all the regulars – Hellboy, Abe Sapien and Liz Sherman are back," he told Latino Review. "We have two characters from the F world, which are a prince and a princess that we will be casting very soon, but not coming back is John Myers. He's not coming back. Kroenen is back in a very small sort of cameo appearance and Professor Broom, John Hurt, is not back. Evidently Kroenen took care of that."
Regarding timing: "We won't start shooting until late April or early May at the worst, but we have a long prep ahead of us."
Del Toro says that he expects to have a decent trailer prepped in time to show at Comic-Con 2007.
