I first heard of it when Burn Gorman (from "Torchwood") was announced of being in it, but not even that would make me watch. He seems to have made it quite big in Hollywood though!
I think I saw Doug first in "Star Trek Discovery", the first three episodes that I watched. He was the only one that kinda interested me, the rest was rather flat. I had heard his name thrown around when "The Shape of Water" came out and everyone praising him, so it kinda stuck with me.
When I then watched "Hellboy" I thought he kinda looks familiar (the eyes!) and looked it up and see, it was him. And yes, this character does indeed feel similar to the Amphibian Man. He has a very graceful way to walk. Can you believe this man is 60 already? Unbelieveable! I don't watch Discovery but aparently in recent episodes he was also seen out of costume, as himself. In case you're interested.
I certainly don't know many directors by name as I prever deciding on the story or on the actors in it but not the director (like I blindly watch anthing with Tom Hanks as I know it will be good), but I might be interested to check out some more of his work as well. I like people who have a vision and stick with it.
