Yet again another comic book will be adapted into a film, this time it is the DC Comic Watchmen to be written and directed by Darren Aronofsky for Paramount Pictures.
The comic, released in 1986, is credited for redefining the superhero genre and is often referred to as the “War and Peace” of comic books. It is a crime-conspiracy story that provided the first realistic look at the behind-the-heroics lives of superhero archetypes.
