The first trailer for the film premiered this past December to mixed response over its light, irreverent tone. The criticisms followed in the wake of claims from the cast and crew that the reboot would be darker and more violent than the original two films by Guillermo Del Toro.

With a new trailer hours away from debuting online, the second trailer will hopefully provide audiences with a tone lining up more closely with the previous claims for a more mature adaptation of the Dark Horse Comics character.
Arriving on April 12, director Neil Marshall’s Hellboy stars David Harbour as Hellboy, Ian McShane as Trevor Bruttenholm, Milla Jovovich as Nimue, Sasha Lane as Alice Monaghan, Penelope Mitchell as Ganeida and Daniel Dae Kim as Ben Daimio.
