Hayter Talks Watchmen

David Hayter (a writer on X-Men) confirmed for fans at ManiaFest that he will make his feature-film directorial debut with a movie version of Alan Moore's classic Watchmen graphic novel, according to a report on CountingDown.com. "The cool thing about Watchmen is that it is a complete story, ... and it's really a murder mystery that has a great beginning, middle and end," Hayter said. "And for years, people have been saying, 'Oh, that's unfilmable. You'll never be able to translate that.' And I disagreed. This is the greatest movie I've ever seen. So I'm looking forward to doing that, something with such ... profundity."

Hayter also discussed his ideas for costumes. "We've got Rorschach, who's basically in a trenchcoat and a fedora, but he's got that awesome mask," he said. "And it's going to be such a great visual that's still half-real and half-costume."

As for Dr. Manhattan, a blue superhero who spends most of the story wearing nothing at all, Hayter said, "We've had a couple of actors in their 40s say, 'Yeah, I'd like to play Dr. Manhattan.' I'm like ... I don't know if I think we need to see you naked."

Thanks to sci-fi.com for the heads up!

This is wonderful....he isn't my first choice for director, but it means that the film is finally getting on its way!

Do you guys think the New York ending will be cut or altered due to the recent events in New York? (Desperately avioding the use of a spoiler tag...)

Does anyone have any feelings on casting?

this movie looks pretty good. the comic was awesome and story line was incredible. the only thing i hope doesn't mess up the movie are the special effects. that is the kind of crap that happened to The Spirit, Jumper, and Max Payne.

Have you seen this?

They're saying it could be delayed by months or years if it's ever released at all.

Makes me... very sad.

It is said that Watch men would be the the top 10 movies in 2009.Just to waitting for the result.I trust in it.Such a cool show!!:cool:

I read the graphic novel (comic book). I think it will be awesome!

I doubt i will be watching this ..... im more excited about High School Musical and Hanah Montana ^__^

this movie is going to be a good one. it is now really come very close to the wire. i cant wait to see this Watchmen 2009 movie. sure it is a movie that many have kept waited

If Zach Snyder is a "visionary" then Michael Bay is a prophet.:mad:

It was well worth staying up till 4am after the midnight showing then turning around for work at 9.

My opinion on the Watchmen movie is the same I have on the Novel. Amazing, now I love the book and while there were changes on the bigscreen, it's hard to bitch and moan about there not being a giant squid at the end of the movie when the entire film delivers a true feeling to the WATCHMEN universe.

I felt sorry for the people who expected to see an action movie and left halfway through the show.

your kidding right , well if people were more familiar on the books and novels that a lot of films are based on , this wouldnt of happen . I adored the novel (gotta get it) , am pretty sure i will wait till it hits dvd dho , but it looks awesome
