He will be his half brother Orm, or Ocean Master. He is fully human, extremely powerful and wants the throne of Atlantis himself. In other words, he is AQUAMAN's Loki.

BE HELMED BY RUBEN FLEISCHER
I can't believe it, but another true American thespian and another of our favourite hunks, Chris Evans, is in the news today as well, talk about a hot post: Ruben Fleischer has been brought to direct him in JEKYLL based on BBC's TV series. It is the modern version of the doctor with split personality who lives in a fortified basement with a psychiatric nurse as his ally. She watches him transform into an alter ego who rages, shows heightened strength and speed and can be a charming, flirtatious scoundrel as well. The two personalities try to co-exist, even though one doesn’t remember what the other does while in control of the body. They use a micro cassette to leave messages for each other. As you know, Universal is preparing another JEKYLL project with Russell Crowe.
