10 More Infuriating Movie Cliffhangers You Didn't Realise Had Answers

Plenty of film franchises don't get to reach their natural conclusions, but few fans are so vocal about wanting to see it happen as those of Guillermo del Toro's Hellboy.

Unfortunately, it seems now that there are just too many obstacles in the way of a trilogy-completing movie, including schedules, Ron Perlman's age, and the fact that 2024 will see the second new iteration of the character since Hellboy II: The Golden Army released in 2008. Audiences will almost certainly never get to see what a third Hellboy outing from del Toro would have looked like.

Like many of the entries on this list, this is made even more frustrating by the cliffhanger ending of Liz (Selma Blair) announcing she was pregnant with twins. No one will ever get to see them on the big screen, however, Ron Perlman has divulged that one would look like mom, and the other like dad, with the former being corrupt and the one who took after Hellboy being angelic.

According to Perlman, Hellboy 3 would have also seen Hellboy take down civilisation as the beast of the Apocalypse. There's a little closure as to what was next at least.
