Guillermo del Toro was in Manhattan yesterday for the New York Film Festival and IGN Filmforce had a chance to talk to del Toro before the screening about his many upcoming projects, including of course "Hellboy 2" which was recently resurrected by Universal.
In a surprise though, del Toro revealed that now that the horned demonic do-gooder has found a home at that particular studio, the possibilities for monstrous team-ups involving the character are mind-boggling.
"I must say that I'm having a great experience right now at Universal, because I find that their understanding of Hellboy as a possibility is so great. My hope is that if everything goes well and we continue [the franchise], Hellboy can start fighting the Universal monsters! I would love to see that".
And don't expect a re-design either ala "Van Helsing", rather the classic Karloff/Lugosi/Chaney Jr./etc. models of yesteryear would be resurrected - "I would love to [go with the classic versions], I would love to".
