What if Wes Anderson had directed _Watchmen_?
Inspired by this article on Slate, Sean and I wondered how Mr. Anderson would have cast Watchmen.
Laurie Jupiter / Silk Spectre II … Gwyneth Paltrow
Jon Osterman / Dr. Manhattan … Bill Murray
Adrian Veidt / Ozymandias … Owen Wilson
Walter Kovacs / Rorschach … Ben Stiller
Edward Blake / The Comedian … Jason Schwartzman
Dan Dreiberg / Nite Owl II … Luke Wilson
Sally Jupiter / Silk Spectre … Anjelica Huston
Edgar Jacobi / Moloch the Mystic … Adrien Brody
Hollis Mason / Nite Owl … Gene Hackman
and, because he has to have a cameo:
Dr. Malcolm Long … Kumar Pallana
Stay tuned, there may be a script floating around from Anderson’s early attempts at writing the screenplay.
