Line 5:
Del Toro is notoriously known for turning down high-budgeted [[Summer Blockbuster]] movies to work on smaller, independent projects. So far he has rejected offers to direct ''[[I Am Legend]]'', ''[[One Missed Call]]''; ''[[The Chronicles of Narnia|The Lion, The Witch, and The Wardrobe]]''; ''[[Halo]]'', and even ''[[Harry Potter and The Half Blood Prince]]''. He did, however, accept an offer to work on the upcoming ''[[The Hobbit (film)|The Hobbit]]'' film series, but ''[[The Lord of the Rings (film)|The Lord of the Rings]]''-helmer [[Peter Jackson]] would up taking over the director's spot, with del Toro staying on as a writer.
He is currently{{when}} developing ''[[Trollhunters]]'', which he will produce at [[Dreamworks Animation]]. He also announced that he will make Dreamworks his animation home and has already worked on a few projects, including ''[[Kung Fu Panda]] 2'' and ''[[Megamind]]''. The full press release can be read [https://web.archive.org/web/20100930063820/http://www.hollywoodreporter.com/hr/content_display/news/e3id8b4313a40c3bc11cb00b07f74df9f4a here].
He made his literary debut with co-author Chuck Hogan in 2009, with the release of a vampire novel, ''[[The Strain]]''. It is the first part of a trilogy of novels. He is also hoping for a final sequel to the Hellboy movies.
