Watchmen's Cast
Zack Snyder, fresh off of 300, is directing the new Watchmen movie, the cast list of which has just been reveled recently. There has been a lot of hype about Watchmen, and a bunch of insiders trying to scoop up all they can -- just like the test shot of Rorschach that was hidden in the R-rated trailer released on YouTube a few months ago. Filming will start on September 17th in Vancouver, where a New York set is being filmed, while scenes taking place on Mars and Antarctica will be done through green screen. Snyder was very clear that he wanted the film to take place in the graphic novels alternate version of 1985. Watchmen is slated to be released on March 6th, 2009.
