'Jekyll & Hyde' Promo Art and Full Synopsis

Beyond the break you'll find the promo sales art and full synopsis for Abel Ferrara's Jekyll & Hyde, which stars Forest Whitaker and rapper Curtis '50 Cent' Jackson. The film is a re-imagining of Robert Louis Stevenson's "The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde," which will be contemporized and titled Jekyll and Hyde.

"Dr Jekyll is a rich doctor of great generosity who lives on the Upper East Side of Manhattan. Mr Hyde is a sadistic murderer with a reputation that strikes fear in to the hearts of people throughout New York. Peter Utterson, Dr Jekyll's lawyer and friend, investigates the mystery of who Mr Hyde is and why he is the sole beneficiary of Jekyll's will.

The devastating answer is that Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde are the same person and the urgent problem is how to kill the beast without destroying the man.
"

I really hope 50 Cent isn't playing Hyde here. Its not as if Forrest couldn't play both parts. The guy is amazing and I'd love to see him play two different characters in the same film.

Abel Ferrara's name attached to a movie usually piques my interest. Loved Ms 45 and Dangerous Game. This should be gritty and entertaining.

Forest Whitaker is so cool, as long as that cent knob is not in it much this could be good.

Anyone else annoyed with the slangy(and extremely glib) overuse of the word "fail." It's even more obnoxious than "meh."

There is no way this can be any good I can't believe they went this way. When I first heard about this it was Depp or Norton that they were looking at for this, this is just another in a long line of horror movies that won't make money and no money means no more horror movies.

Depending on how much 50 is trying to act/how many scenes have him not with his shirt off looking mean it might be alright

I'm confused, because 50 Cent in a horror film(any film, actually) is pretty bad, but Forest Whitaker is a GREAT actor! I wonder if they cancel each other out?

This is a more urban Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde remake? O_o gawl.

Studios are trying to milk money out of multiple audiences. they are hoping that horror fans will jump because of the genre and they are trying to drag in more hip hop fans as well. just another form of exploitation. It will suck, but may be bad enough to be good. That is the only thing people can hope for in a case like this.

WTF ???? Forrest is an amazing actor, but 50 Cent ??? Is this some urban hip hop version or is this trying to be serious ? I'm just having a hard time taking this serious on any level. Kinda reminds me of when Wil Smith was the lead in The Wild Wild West. If you watched the television show, you will know what I mean. It just didn't work.
