2007, TV serial UK, Jekyll. A 6 part BBC serial, aired
from June 16th 2007, starring James Nesbitt as Tom Jackman, a modern Jekyll whose Hyde wreaks havoc amongst
modern day London. Jackman's transformation into Hyde is
triggered by an as yet unknown cause, but it is not from
a potion as it is in the book. Hyde is also credited as
a completely new personality rather than the dark side
of Jackman, with Hyde calling Jackman 'daddy'. The
serial is not an adaptation of Stevenson's book, but
rather a continuation taking place in the present day:
the original book and both Dr Jekyll and Stevenson are
prominently featured within the story. Previous
adaptions of the novel are also referenced, notably some
of the actors who have portrayed the title character.
2008, TV movie. Dr. Jekyll & Mr. Hyde, directed by Paolo Barzman, and starring Dougray Scott, Tom Skerritt, and
Krista Bridges.
