Ladies and Gentlemen, The Watchmen


It's T-Minus one year until the Watchmen movie comes out, and to help fan those fandom fires, Zack Snyder has posted full body portrait-style photos of all the main characters, excluding special effects heavy (I'd assume) Dr. Manhattan. Here we have Patrick Wilson as Night Owl, the Batman parallel made a whole lot clearer more overt than in the comics. Check out the other pictures for a very, very young Ozymandias who looks almost exactly like Toby Miguire, and on the other side of the spectrum, the Comedian looking like he just stepped off the page.

For more on the look of the film, check out our painstakingly compiled movie still-to-comic panel comparison.

am i missing something in that link? I didn't see dr. Manhattan... i wanted to see some blue junk! Sigh, i dunno how you guys feel... but i just worry they're going to turn this sucker into one typical bad superhero movie. The comedian's pretty good, i'll give you that...

I said EXcluding Dr. Manhattan, not INncluding; I'd guess that his look depends almost entirely on CG effects, and they probably want to keep it top secret. So if by "i wanted to see some blue junk" you mean blue male genitals, you're out of luck, at least for now.
