Marshall and Harbour’s Hellboy will now open the week after DC’s Shazam!, where it will face down several other releases, including Robert Downey Jr.’s The Voyage of Doctor Dolittle; Breakthrough, starring Chrissy Metz and Topher Grace; and the YA adaptation After.
No reason was given for the change of dates.
Despite the delay, there is significant speculation that the first Hellboy trailer will debut soon. Hellboy creator Mike Mignola and several actors from the film are slated to appear on a panel at New York Comic Con on Oct. 6, and many are anticipating a teaser to be released.
