A trailer has been launched for the newest model of the traditional story, Doctor Jekyll, starring Eddie Izzard. I take advantage of Eddie in the title of the article, as that’s the identify being utilized in promotion of the movie, however wish to word that Izzard has come out and mentioned that her most popular identify is Suzy, although Eddie is appropriate. Scott Chambers co-stars in the movie alongside Lindsay Duncan, Jonathan Hyde and Simon Callow.
Joe Stephenson directed the pic from a script written by Dan Kelly-Mulhern. The synopsis for the remake says, “Doctor Jekyll focuses on a reclusive Nina Jekyll finding friendship with her newly hired help, Rob, played by rising star Scott Chambers, who must work together to prevent Hyde from destroying her life.”
Stephenson lately advised Fangoria of the story, “There’ve been over 100 cinematic adaptations of Stevenson’s novella, but there has never been a trans Dr. Jekyll. There seem to be some assumptions that because Nina is a trans character, we are somehow going to make it about gender. That is not the case; the themes of our film are true to the original work.”
Check out the trailer beneath, and watch Doctor Jekyll in theaters on October twenty seventh.
