Who’s watching the “Watchmen”? HBO is hoping you will be.
The premium cable network has officially ordered a series based on Alan Moore and Dave Gibbons’ 1986 “Watchmen” graphic novel, Deadline reported on Wednesday. The novel focuses on an alternate history America where superheroes changed the course of world history but are now mostly retired — until they’re suddenly needed once again.
There were hints the news was coming. On Tuesday, showrunner Damon Lindelof dropped an Instagram photo captioned “Day One,” showing a trophy marked “In Gratitude” (fans know it was presented to superhero Nite Owl). The statue is apparently sitting on the “Watchmen” writers’ room table, but not much else is revealed.
