Forest Whitaker is currently in the midst of negotiations to star in a modern adaptation of the classic “The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde”. And he will be staring alongside rapper 50 Cent in this one… Forest Whitaker calls this an “on screen father-son relationship”: “We’re still figuring out what we’re going to do, if I am going to be doing that or not. If I end up doing it, I would be playing Jekyll and he would be playing Hyde. It’s a father-son kind of relationship. It’s also an interesting script because we are dealing with similar things. Jekyll has a lot of issues and problems personally. Hidden passions, hidden perversions – and it is acted out by 50.” Dude, make up your mind: are you playing Jekyll or Hyde? How is 50 cent ever going to be able to work with such an undecided man?
