The Watchmen TV series is a go at HBO!
Following Damon Lindeloff seemingly teasing yesterday that production has begun on the live-action Watchmen HBO series, now HBO has officially picked up the series with a pilot order (first episode).
It’s probably also a bonus that a Watchmen movie directed by Zack Snyder was released in 2009, and the graphic novel is uber popular and from legendary creators Alan Moore and Dave Gibbons.
It’s further said that having something to replace Game of Thrones is another bonus as well as the fact that Watchmen will be HBO’s first superhero series and comes with R-rated content, which fits with their TV model.
