Billy Crudup,
Patrick Wilson and
Matthew Goode are among those on board as
The Watchmen in
Zack Snyder's adaptation of the iconic comic book,
Variety reports. Crudup will play Dr. Manhattan, Wilson is Night Owl and Goode is Ozymandias, while
Jeffrey Dean Morgan,
Jackie Earle Haley and
Malin Akerman round out the cast as Comedian, Rorschach and Silk Spectre. The film will use a green-screen technique similar to what Snyder used for
300, and also reap similar greenbacks.
