Doug Jones

 
Notes / Trivia
Although his voice as 'Abe Sapien' in Hellboy (2004) was dubbed by David Hyde Pierce, David refused a credit because he felt that Abe was entirely Doug's creation and did not wish to detract from his performance.

His performance as 'Billy Butcherson' in Hocus Pocus (1993) earned him a pre-nomination for a comedy award.

His makeup in Hellboy (2004) usually took six hours.

Has double-jointed legs.

Learned mime at his University.

Was inspired to create Abe Sapien's graceful and liquid movements in Hellboy (2004) after watching the pet fish in his office.

The choker he often wears for promo appearances is one of Abe Sapien's eyes from Hellboy (2004).

Frequently has a role in the films of Guillermo del Toro.

Not only did Doug portray all four Imps in the film Doom (2005), but he was also asked by director Andrzej Bartkowiak during filming to choreograph the movements of the Czech dancers who were hired to play Zombies.

Doug's role in Guillermo del Toro's Pan's Labyrinth required him to learn huge amounts of dialogue in archaic Spanish - which he did perfectly.

He was the mascot for his college alma mater - Ball State University, where he performed as "Charlie the Cardinal" at many of the sporting and public events.
