Highly speculative and unconfirmed, but a damn bad (or good) one liner through an interesting article on FilmRot – Has Watchmen been cancelled?
Chris Kenny & Nic Korda are UK Producers on Paramount’s ‘Watchmen’ which is preparing for a spring shoot in Pinewood Studios. LATEST: we hear this morning that: “Watchmen” has been cancelled!
I’m with James on this one, it’s looking flakier than the crumbliest chocolate I’ve ever tasted before by the day, and this rumour isn’t something that would surprise me. In fact, it would make me happy.
Woa, don’t get me wrong I am a huge fan of Watchmen, but what I don’t want to see is a half-hearted bad stab at it, because it will only have one stab, at least in our lifetimes. Do it wrong and I doubt anyone else will touch it again, for a very long time. Let’s see it done right. So Paramount, if you’re not up to the task of bringing this highly complex and human driven novel to the big screen, drop it now. Let someone else with guts and backing get it done.
