🌑 Plot Summary

Years after saving the world from apocalyptic horrors, Hellboy (David Harbour) faces his darkest challenge yet when an ancient Abyssal King awakens beneath the oceans—an underworld ruler bent on reclaiming Earth for his submerged legions. Blurring the line between myth and nightmare, this enтιтy rises to wage war on dry land.

When coastal cities flood and sea creatures betray the boundaries, Hellboy must unite with Liz Sherman and Abe Sapien—and forge an uneasy alliance with his adoptive father, Professor Bruttenholm—to prevent humanity’s descent into darkness. Along the way, they confront mythical horrors, demonic politics, and Hellboy’s own destiny as a bridge between worlds.

As the Abyssal King’s influence grows, Hellboy races to lock old portals, confront ancient deities, and accept that saving the world might cost everything he’s ever loved.
