Overview
- Principal photography for Hyde is underway in Bucharest with Holt McCallany starring as Detective Grimes, a haunted investigator hunting a brutal serial killer.
- Nathalie Emmanuel plays Detective Doran, an officer assigned to shadow Grimes, while Bruce Greenwood appears as Henry Monroe, Grimes’s mandated therapist, and David Harewood plays Lieutenant Robert Malloy.
- The brothers Graham and Parker Phillips wrote and are directing Hyde and are producing through their Phillips Pictures banner alongside producers Jason Tamasco and Zak Kristofek for Traction.
- Producers and the filmmakers have publicly praised the assembled cast and said they chose Bucharest both for practical production reasons and for the city’s atmosphere, which they call tailor-made for the film’s tone.
- The project is framed as an auteur-led, noir-tinged thriller following the Phillips’ earlier work and could raise profiles for the cast while adding to the recent trend of U.S. productions using Eastern European cities for moody, low-cost shooting locations.
