Johnny Depp is returning to the limelight to create a Mr. Hyde graphic novel with famed director Ridley Scott.
Depp and Scott, director of Alien, Blade Runner, and Gladiator, are working with production company Mechanical Cake to build a new, original entertainment property called Hyde, with all three having co-ownership. It all starts with a graphic novel, with main character Hyde created by Depp himself.
Hyde picks up Mr. Hyde’s story, from the Robert Louis Stevenson novella Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde, and “imagines a world where Mr. Hyde has defeated Jekyll.”
“Now unencumbered by interruptions from his alter ego, Hyde can finally freely explore his dark tendencies with uninhibited abandon,” Mechanical Cake said.
The two-volume graphic novel series finds Mr. Hyde in his new domain, the sewers beneath London, where “he experiments on others, using the corrupting serum to create even more Hydes.” Each volume in the series will contain two chapters with over 200 pages. Johnny Depp will have input on “all aspects of the property and create the character of Hyde.”
A note for press issued by Mechanical Cake included a comment from Depp: “To build within the world of Robert Louis Stevenson’s masterful characters and to be welcomed into the vision of Ridley Scott… and inexplicably having the opportunity to explore. It’s surprising to me. And hopefully surprising to him. It’s insane and beautiful to receive that trust from Ridley. A master.”
The series is written by Jesse Negron and Joe Matsumoto, edited by Dave Elliott, and drawn by artists Gary Erskine and Chris Weston. Hyde chapter 1 of 4 ships on Halloween this year.
Meanwhile, there are rumblings that Depp may return to the world of Pirates of the Caribbean, in which he played the much-loved Captain Jack Sparrow. In 2018, Depp lost a libel case he lodged against the UK publisher of The Sun newspaper over an article which characterised him as having been violent towards his former wife Amber Heard. The following year, Depp then successfully sued Heard for defamation over an article written by her in The Washington Post, the publication of which, Depp claimed, had led to Disney refusing to work with him.
But as the years have passed, and Depp has again begun picking up projects elsewhere, Pirates of the Caribbean boss Jerry Bruckheimer has since stated he was now keen for Depp to return.
