The HollywoodReporter has learned that Ian McShane (Deadwood, John Wick, Game of Thrones, American Gods) will join David Harbour (Stranger Things) as Professor Broom in Hellboy: Rise of The Blood Queen, previously played by the late John Hurt.
The new story sees the hero squaring off against a medieval sorceress who seeks to destroy humankind.
McShane will play Hellboy’s adoptive father, Professor Broom.
The R-rated reboot will be directed by Neil Marshall with a September production start in UK and Bulgaria.
