The movie, which is due to shoot in coming months, will see Hellboy stranded in 1950s rural Appalachia with a rookie BPRD agent. There they discover a small community haunted by witches, led by a local devil with a troubling connection to Hellboy’s past: the Crooked Man.

The Crooked Man will be the first film in Millennium’s development slate with German film and TV distributor, Telepool, owned by Will and Jada Pinkett Smith.
Kesy can currently be seen starring in the Lionsgate feature Dark Web: Cicadia 3301 opposite Alan Ritchson. He most recently played Sgt. Josh Kirk in the Millennium feature The Outpost, opposite Orlando Bloom and Scott Eastwood as well as the role of Thunder in Tom Clancy’s Amazon feature Without Remorse alongside Michael B. Jordan. Upcoming films include Paramount feature Sheroes and Netflix feature The Killer.

Jordan’s sports drama “Creed III” is taking on two-time champ “Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania” at the movies, though the heavyweight boxer is expected to emerge victorious over Marvel’s tiniest Avenger. “Creed III,” which Jordan directed in his feature filmmaking debut, is projected to earn a trilogy-best $36 million to $40 million from 4,007 North American theaters in its opening weekend.
