The latest adaptation of The Invisible Man ditches the bandages and sunglasses for a high-tech new approach.

In the novel, Wells’ antihero is Griffin, an “experimental investigator” and graduate teaching assistant at a provincial college. He describes himself as “almost an albino,” with white skin and red eyes. Wells characterizes Griffin as “aggressive and explosive,” constantly “under a chronic irritation of the greatest intensity.” Griffin tries to make himself invisible just for the power of it.

In Whannell’s movie, Adrian Griffin also considers himself to be above the morals of “common people,” but his motivation for becoming invisible is much less ambiguous and his actions less random. He wants to use his invisibility to control his wife, Cecilia , who has finally left him. He’s not a poor grad student, and not “almost an albino,” either—he’s a rich, conventionally handsome tech wunderkind with all of the “power and freedom” he could desire.
