This article covers a developing story. Continue to check back with us as we will be adding more information as it becomes available. DC has announced two new animated movies which will be based on the most legendary graphic novels of all time. Following a screening of Justice League: Warworld at San Diego Comic-Con, DC revealed that next year will see the release of Watchmen and Justice League: Crisis on Infinite Earths.
The Snyder film was accompanied by an animated short film that adapted the "Tales of the Black Freighter" segments from the original comic. This previous animated treatment sets a precedent for Watchmen to be explored in the animated format once again, this time under the leadership of James Gunn and Peter Safran. No details about Watchmen's plot has yet been announced other than the project will be R-rated.
Watchmen had a huge impact on the superhero genre after its release in 2009, and the film has retained a huge following since then. One of its stars, Patrick Wilson, told ReelBlend that he believed the darkness of the film paved the way for films like The Avengers to flirt with the lighter side of superheroism: "Watchmen is the only movie of mine that I have watched front to back since a premiere — that movie is awesome," said Wilson.
