Hey folks, Harry here... Empire Online sat down and talked with Vin Diesel about a good many things ranging from the PITCH BLACK sequel called THE CHRONICLES OF RIDDICK to his spy film TRIPLE X to TERMINATOR 3. However, what interested me most was HELLBOY!!! It seems that things are moving forward with Diesel playing HELLBOY because apparently some people are telling Diesel to 'keep quiet about it'! That must mean that he's in the midst of heavy negotiations for the role right now and they want everything to go smoothly. AMEN TO THAT!
Recently tipped for the lead in Guillermo Del Toro’s adaptation of demonic comic book hero Hellboy, Diesel hinted heavily that he may well be taking on the role but evaded attempts to pin down a definite confirmation, insisting: "they’ve told me to keep quiet about it."
"You know why I like Hellboy," muses Diesel. "I like Hellboy for the same reason I liked The Iron Giant. This guy’s just ambivalent about his strength, he’s like this cool guy who doesn’t understand his strength and he goes through life like a bull in a china shop," he grins wickedly. "I love it."
