What did David Harbour learn from his Hellboy disaster? 'I learned not to f*ck with an established IP, that’s for sure. “[Don’t f*ck with] a beloved and established IP. That’s the biggest lesson learned.”
David Harbour found success in the blockbuster film world with “Black Widow,” where he joined the Marvel Cinematic Universe as Red Guardian, but his first go-around with studio tentpoles was more or less a disaster. Harbour led Neil Marshall’s 2019 “” reboot, which only grossed $21 million in the U.S. on a $50 million production budget. At the worldwide box office, the film tapped out at $44 million.
“Whatever failures or successes that movie was, of which there are many, the movie itself had such a thing going into it that it was almost impossible,” Harbour continued. “Something like ‘Stranger Things’ or ‘Violent Night,’ it’s an original thing so people can judge it when it comes out, when they see it. They don’t have going into it so much stuff. That to me is what’s so difficult about existing IP.
“I think it failed before we began shooting because I think that people didn’t want us to make the movie,” Harbour said at the time. “Guillermo del Toro and Ron Perlman created this iconic thing that we thought could be reinvented and then certainly the loudness of the internet was like, ‘We do not want you to touch this.’”
