The Invisible Man

Name: Griffin (the series doesn't give his full name, only his last name).
Profession: scientist, researcher - he was the one who discovered a way to make the body invisible.
Origin and status: In this version, he is depicted as a British scientist of the late 19th century; social status is rather loner, not integrated into academic circles, and keeps to himself.
Appearance features: he has albinism (very light skin, colorless eyelashes and eyebrows) - this is an important detail of his image, which emphasizes his “otherness” even before the experiment.
Character and motivation: obsessed with his discovery, prone to impulsive and aggressive behavior, increasingly losing touch with society. His main goal is to regain visibility, and he's willing to take extreme measures to achieve this.
Social status: effectively outside of society – he is forced to hide, cannot live and work legally, and relationships with people quickly become hostile.

Before the experiment, he dresses like an ordinary, even slightly casual, scientist. There's nothing flashy in the shot: simple, practical clothes that don't attract unnecessary attention. This emphasizes his immersion in his work—for him, research comes first, not appearance.
After the experiment, everything changes dramatically. Griffin's body becomes completely invisible. To somehow exist in the world and avoid being immediately caught, he is forced to actively camouflage himself:

wraps his head with bandages;
puts on dark glasses.

Before the experiment, Griffin looks like a normal human. However, there's a crucial detail: he has albinism. It's not just a background effect—his very light skin and colorless eyelashes and eyebrows make it harder for him to conceal his face when he tries to camouflage himself after his transformation.

We are talking about the miniseries "The Invisible Man" (1984, UK, directed by Brian Lighthill), a screen adaptation of H.G. Wells's novel. The main character is the scientist Griffin.

Griffin's character in this adaptation
Obsessed with science, the discovery of invisibility is his primary goal, and he's willing to go to extremes to achieve it. Science is more important to him than ethical norms.
Unstable and hot-tempered, Griffin is portrayed in the series as a man with abrupt mood swings: he quickly becomes irritated, snaps at others, and is easily angered.
Isolated and suspicious, he avoids company, distrusts people, and feels like an outsider. Invisibility only exacerbates this alienation.
Aggressive and dangerous, Griffin increasingly resorts to violence as the story progresses, attempting to use his invisibility to dictate terms and intimidate others. In this version, he's portrayed more as an antagonist than a tragic hero.
Desperate. Behind the aggression lies a sense of hopelessness: he can't regain visibility, loses control of the situation, and becomes increasingly desperate and unpredictable.
Egocentric. He considers his discovery so important that he justifies any action with it, without considering the consequences for others.
