A Variety article detailing the increasingly busy career of director Guillermo del Toro touches on the future of the 'Hellboy' franchise.
According to the article, Universal has not yet committed to making a third movie with del Toro, but may actually be interested in doing a TV show based on Mike Mignola's character.
'Hellboy II: The Golden Army' underperformed here in the U.S., but has done well overseas.
"I think they’ll decide when the last euro hits the piggybank," del Toro said. "We laid the groundwork to have a magnificent third act. I’d like to return to an action franchise with 60-year-old actor Ron Perlman, because he’ll be scratching at that age when I get to it."
Universal's production prexy Donna Langley told Variety the studio is interested and may work with del Toro to add a TV series and online segments to broaden the following before making the series finale.
