Guillermo Del Toro, who just confirmed his new role as director of The Hobbit series, recently spoke with SciFi about another film series he’s been working on, Hellboy.  Hellboy 2 is currently in post production, and Del Toro once spoke of his desire to do a third Hellboy.  However, it appears that his interest in the Hellboy franchise ends right there, at number three.
Del Toro said he doesn’t want to do a fourth Hellboy film, and now says that he’d only do a third movie under the condition that there would be no more movies after that. “No prequels and no sequels: nothing,” he said.

Is this just really his way of saying he’ll be tied up for the next four years with The Hobbit?
