The Watchmen cast

A lot of rumors have been flying about who will portray the costume heroes in The Watchmen film. The rumors included a lot of big names. Well, the cast has been announced! It is not big names but I support at least one of the castings.

Billy Crudup as Dr. Manhatton

Patrick Wilson as The Night Owl

(eh, that actor is too fit and too young)
Malin Ackerman as Silk Spectre

Matthew Goode as Ozymandias

Jackie Earle Haley as Rorschach

(yes, that is the creepy ass kid from the 70's who was supposed to be so hot! awesome!)

Overall, the cast is too young.
(All those photos were difficult to find too!)

WAYYYY TOO Young, dude! If they fuck with the ages for the sake of hollywood, then the story isn't going to make any sense! How the fuck are they going to have that womyn portray the 1985/older Silk Spectre if she looks so young? WHat about her daughter? Man...they could do so well if they don't fuck it up too hard. I wonder if they'll update it so that there are, like, news headlines about entering Iran instead of The Soviets entering afghanistan!

while the cast might have seemed “young,” it was a concession to the number of flashbacks in the story, as he didn’t like casting two actors for one part. “I wanted to hire actors who were in the middle of their age, and age them up and down.”
