Dämonen haben auch ihre eigenen Dämonen.
Im Kampf gegen das Böse kann es nur einen geben: Halbdämon Hellboy! Mit geschärftem Schwert, glutroten Hörnern und legendärer Eisenfaust hat er diesmal eine ganz besonders apokalyptische Mission: Er muss die mächtige Hexe Nimue und das Monster Gruagach stoppen, die zusammen mit einer Reihe weiterer mythischer Wesen, Tod und Zerstörung unter die Menschen bringen wollen. Doch dafür brauchen sie Hellboy. Denn seine Bestimmung war einst, selbst den Weltuntergang zu starten – bis sein Ziehvater Professor Broom ihn auf die gute Seite holte und als Spezial-Agent gegen die Monster dieser Welt einsetzte. Während Hellboy nun von Broom für einen Auftrag nach London geschickt wird, zieht Nimue eine Schneise der Verwüstung durch ganz England. Und plötzlich sehen sich Hellboy und seine Mitstreiter Anna und Ben nicht nur mit einer Armee der Finsternis konfrontiert, sondern auch mit ureigenen Dämonen. Die blutrote Schlacht kann beginnen!
Gesamte Besetzung von Hellboy - Call of Darkness
David Harbour
Hellboy / Anung Un Rama
David Harbour's portrayal of the iconic character Hellboy, also known as Anung Un Rama, in the 2019 film of the same name, brought a new layer of depth and complexity to the beloved demonic superhero. Harbour embodied the character with a gruff, world-weary charm, effectively capturing Hellboy's internal struggle between his demonic nature and his desire to protect humanity. His performance was both physically imposing and emotionally nuanced, showcasing a Hellboy that was more vulnerable and conflicted than previous iterations. Harbour's ability to balance the character's snarky one-liners with moments of genuine pathos allowed audiences to connect with the half-demon on a more personal level, despite the film's overall mixed reception. His embodiment of Hellboy's imposing physicality through prosthetics and makeup was convincing, and his comedic timing added a layer of levity to the darker elements of the story. While the film itself may not have fully lived up to expectations, Harbour's commitment to the role and his unique take on the character certainly left an impression, paying homage to the original comics while carving out his own interpretation of the Right Hand of Doom.
Milla Jovovich
Vivienne Nimue, the Blood Queen
Milla Jovovich delivers a captivating performance as Vivienne Nimue, the Blood Queen, in the 2019 film "Hellboy." Jovovich embodies the ancient sorceress with a regal malevolence, bringing a complex blend of charisma and menace to the role. Her portrayal of Nimue is both seductive and terrifying, as she effortlessly oscillates between moments of beguiling charm and ferocious brutality. Jovovich's Nimue is not just a one-dimensional villain; she imbues the character with a deep-seated pathos, hinting at the tragic origins of her millennia-long quest for vengeance. With her striking presence and commanding performance, Jovovich crafts a formidable antagonist who stands as a memorable match against David Harbour's gruff Hellboy, anchoring the film with her dark allure and contributing to the rich tapestry of its supernatural world.
Ian McShane
Trevor "Broom" Bruttenholm
Ian McShane brought a gruff, paternal warmth and a sharp sense of humor to the role of Trevor "Broom" Bruttenholm in Guillermo del Toro's 2004 film "Hellboy." As the cantankerous yet caring founder of the Bureau for Paranormal Research and Defense (BPRD), McShane's Broom serves as a father figure to the titular character, Hellboy, whom he adopted as a baby after the demon was summoned to Earth by the Nazis. McShane's performance is a blend of tough love and world-weary wisdom, as he navigates the complexities of guiding Hellboy through the challenges of his unique existence. His character's deep commitment to protecting the world from supernatural threats is palpable, and McShane's natural charisma and commanding screen presence lend Broom a sense of gravitas and authority. Despite his character's stern exterior, McShane infuses Broom with a underlying tenderness, particularly in his interactions with Hellboy, which helps to humanize the character and endear him to the audience. McShane's portrayal is a highlight of the film, providing a poignant counterbalance to the more outlandish elements of the story, and helping to ground the fantastical world of "Hellboy" in relatable emotion.
Thomas Haden Church
Lobster Johnson
Thomas Haden Church brought a distinctive grit and charisma to his portrayal of Lobster Johnson in the 2019 film "Hellboy." As the hard-boiled, vigilante spirit with a penchant for smoking and a brutally efficient approach to justice, Church managed to capture the essence of the character's no-nonsense demeanor and pulp fiction heritage. Despite the constraints of a supporting role, Church's performance was marked by a commanding presence, delivering lines with a raspy, authoritative voice that harkened back to the golden age of detective stories and film noir. His embodiment of Lobster Johnson was a blend of stoicism and dry wit, providing a stark contrast to the more fantastical elements of the Hellboy universe. Audiences and fans of the source material alike appreciated Church's ability to inhabit the role with a sense of gravitas, making his iteration of the gun-toting, lobster-claw-branded hero both memorable and fittingly enigmatic.
