HBO’s Watchmen Teaser Trailer
With Game of Thrones coming to an end this month, HBO has their work cut out for them trying to replace such a key show in their line-up. We already know that multiple Game of Thrones spinoffs are likely, but in the meantime one of the shows they will be looking to carry that torch is Damon Lindelof’s adaptation of Alan Moore and Dave Gibbons’ iconic comic Watchmen. This isn’t just another retelling of the comic but rather a sequel and “remix” of sorts that takes place in a contemporary setting but acknowledges the events of the comic in the past. The Watchmen themselves seem to have disappeared but superheroes are still outlawed and the world is an intriguing one. With a cast that includes Jeremy Irons, Regina King, Don Johnson, Louis Gossett Jr., Tim Blake Nelson, Adelaide Clemens, Andrew Howard, Yahya Abdul-Mateen II, Sara Vickers and Jean Smart, Watchmen arrives on HBO this fall. Check out the first trailer after the jump and see what you think.
