The director sheds some more light on what fans can expect in the next installment.

Sci Fi Wire recently spoke with Guillermo Del Toro who talked a bit about Hellboy 2: The Golden Army currently in pre-production at Universal.

Del Toro said the sequel will bring back most of the main characters, including Ron Perlman’s big red demon, Selma Blair’s pyrokinetic Liz Sherman and Doug Jones’ amphibious Abe Sapien. “Yeah, actually, everybody will be back, except Agent Myers, ... the only non-comic-book-based character of the first one,” del Toro said. “And we’re bringing in Johann Kraus, the ectoplasmic agent from the comics.” In the comics, Kraus is a disembodied spirit with psychic abilities who maintains form by wearing a containment suit and is an active member of the Bureau for Paranormal Research and Defense.
