Ron Perlman talked to the LA Daily News about Hellboy 2: The Golden Army, for which Pan's Labyrinth director Guillermo del Toro has flown to Budapest to "zero in on the beginning of principal photography."

Perlman added that he is busy working out to get back into that super suit of his for a production start around the end of May. "I'm already in the gym six days a week," he notes with a smile. And what does his workout consist of? "The push-ups, the sit-ups, the stationary bike. Then, of course, there's the lifting of the pizza." Does he have a trainer? "I have a trainer, and I'm almost housebroken," he quips.

The sequel will have "an epic quality," says Perlman, even as it "continues to explore all the things that are great about this character - a superhero who is such an underachiever and such an adolescent."

Hellboy 2: The Golden Army is scheduled to hit theaters on August 1, 2008.

Great to see things moving along on this

Perlman kicks ass. He has such a great attitude about it. Perfect guy to play Hellboy.

Doug has a start date at the moment of the 28th May, but that could change. But not by much I should think. Looking forward to seeing what GdT has planned for us!

Hopefully the effects will resmble Pan's Labyrinth.

Hopefully the effects will resmble Pan's Labyrinth.

Even if they represent the 1st movie, but are improved from that, i will be happy.

Doug's travel date to Budapest has been brought forward to the 17th May. Now this doesn't mean that filming will begin early, as Doug is playing several characters in the film and there are a lot of final fittings to do, but still ... it's so nice that we have the film under way at last!!!
