After officially receiving it's "R" rating earlier this week, we have the brand new red band trailer for Hellboy, which gives us a much better feel for the movie's tone than we got from the first footage last year.

Neil Marshall directed the new Hellboy movie from a screenplay co-written by Christopher Golden, Andrew Cosby, and Hellboy creator Mike Mignola. Larry Gordon, Lloyd Levin, and Dark Horse Entertainment's Mike Richardson produced the project.

In addition to Harbour in the title role, the new Hellboy movie co-stars Milla Jovovich as villainous sorceress known as the Blood Queen, with Ian McShane in the role of Professor Broom and Daniel Dae Kim playing Ben Daimio.

The new film is completely separate from 2004's Hellboy and 2008's Hellboy II: The Golden Army, which were directed by Guillermo del Toro and starred Ron Perlman in the titular role.

The new Hellboy hits theaters on April 12th, and we'll be sure to keep Daily Dead readers updated on further details.
