Human Fly 0 Report post Posted May 21, 2007 AICN says that the following have been offered parts - Patrick Wilson - Night Owl Jude Law - Ozymandias Keanu Reeves - Dr. Manhattan Personally, I still would have liked to see Tom Cruise as Veidt. Jude Law should do well though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
brokentusk16 0 Report post Posted May 22, 2007 Keanu Reaves? Ugh, I hope this is just a rumor. I'm trying to think of an actor for Manhattan, and Ralph Fiennes popped into my head. He could do the cold, emotionless stuff pretty well I think. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

2GOLD 0 Report post Posted May 22, 2007 Well Keanu might be out of the picture anyway if Constantine 2 gets filming around the time they start Watchmen. So that might be the best thing in the world to hope for. Keanu seems more interested in doing a very hard R rated Constantine sequel than anything else so if they can get that rolling first, he'll be off the table for this.

bobobrazil1984 0 Report post Posted May 22, 2007 Ever since Zack Snyder signed on, I've just gotten a bad vibe from the project, like a bad aura. By point of comparison, I was very optimistic when David Hayter was writing the script and planning on directing it - even after it was turned over to a different director with Hayter's script.
