YOU ONLY LIVE ONCE...MAYBE TWICE!
The Reason Why Doug Bradley Would not Return as Pinhead in HellRaiser 9
Seems simple enough. Doug Bradley just doesn't believe in the project. From the lack of funding to the tight shooting schedule you can
just tell that he isn't behind the ninth installment and good for him
standing up and not wanting to sour the franchise. Bad for us because it
appears as if the ninth installment in the series will be Pinhead-less
or even worse someone else will dawn the role...
Follow up:
Our good friends at DreadCentral caught up with Bradley and this is what he had to say about the ninth film in the series titled, HELLRAISER: REVELATIONS.
"I know that many of you will have caught up with the sudden burst
of Internet chatter about a new Hellraiser film going into production,
and will be keen to know whether I’ve been approached to play Pinhead
again, so here’s the deal ..."
"I have been approached just in this last week (w/b 16 August) regarding
a proposed new Hellraiser film. This is not the ‘remake’ which has been
endlessly discussed for the last three years: with the working title
Hellraiser: Revelations, it will be the ninth film in the series. I
would stress that I have had no contact from, or negotiations with,
anyone from Dimension Films: rather these contacts have been by way of
private discussion with individuals involved with this project."
"Following these discussions, and after reading the script and giving it
due consideration, I have decided not to participate. The ink is barely
dry on the script, and it is scheduled to be in front of the cameras in
two weeks time and in the can by the middle of next month (September
2010). The miniscule shooting schedule is more than matched by the
budget."
"Whether or not this means that somebody else will be stepping up to
play Pinhead, I have no idea. I guess we can watch this space together
..."
"One way or another, this does not seem to me to represent a serious
attempt to revive the Hellraiser franchise. However, I wish everyone who
will be directly involved in the making of this film, good luck with
it."
I Agree whit him

Well, given what Hellraiser 5-8 have become, can you blame him? In the second half of the franchise, they took already existent scripts and simply added Pinhead to make it a Hellraiser movie. He has done some stinkers, so if he passed on this one, my expectations are not too high.
