You’d probably hate the film Time After Time, then, in which H.G Wells actually builds the time machine and has to chase Jack the Ripper into a modern US city. He meets and falls in love with a woman who travels bs k with him(he actually married a woman with the name of that character, but she was his cousin). Malcolm McDowell as Herbert, David Warner in yet ANOTHER villain role and Mary Steenburgen as Amy Robbins. It was great fun!

Or if the tv/movie adaptation is too far away from the books - the most recent being Riverdale (from the Archie comics), The Durrells (from My Family and Other Animals/Birds, Beasts and Relatives and Garden of the Gods) and Anne of Green Gables (from Anne of Green Gables).
