Someone behind the film adaptation of Alan Moore’s seminal graphic novel Watchmen has been slowly and quietly leaking the film’s cast onto the Internet over the last few days. Watchmen is an unfilmable graphic novel, and the adaptation can only appear hollow in comparison. Still, I can’t take my eyes off of the production news. Zack Snyder of 300 and Dawn of the Dead (2004) directs the film. Here’s the cast as it stands today:

Jackie Earle Haley as Rorschach

Billy Crudup as Dr. Manhattan

Matthew Goode as Adrian Veidt/Ozymandias

Patrick Wilson as Nite Owl

Malin Ackerman as Silk Spectre/Sally Jupiter

We’ll see how this one works out, but as of right now, I’m very skeptical. VERY SKEPTICAL. Expect Snyder to announce the rest of the cast at San Diego Comic Con.
