Interview: Scott Chambers discusses ‘Doctor Jekyll’ the new ‘Winnie-the-Pooh’
Just ahead of its exclusive first-look at last year’s FrightFest, the Doctor Jekyll team revealed that the film was to be the first in a new era of Hammer Films. The historic and iconic institution was responsible for films such as Dracula and The Hounds of the Baskervilles. However, after ruling the British film industry during the 50s, 60s and 70s, the team went dark. Now they are back with a modern re-interpretation of Robert Louis Stevenson’s 1886 novel, Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde. Directed by Joe Stephenson, Doctor Jekyll stars Suzie Izzard as the formidable Nina Jekyll who employs recently released criminal Rob (Scott Chambers) to be her assistant.
