Watchmen was a great movie and it played a large role in putting Patrick Wilson on the map. Since then, the actor has become the face of The Conjuring franchise and will return to the world of comic books - after passing on Ant-Man - as Aquaman's Ocean Master. During a recent interview, however, the topic of Damon Lindeloff's upcoming TV adaptation came up and Wilson is definitely interested.
"It was such a joy shooting that movie, I wanted there to be more of them," he explains in the video below. "I’ve wanted to play Dan again. I certainly think we’re all more age appropriate now!" That's a fair point but the actor was quick to point out that he hasn't heard anything from HBO about the show.
"There’s never been one conversation," he admits. "I’m sure they want to stay as far away from us as possible but I love Damon Lindeloff I’m so excited to see what they will do. I’d love to play [Dan] now but no there’s been no talk, I’m just a fan like you are." Well, that's a shame but the TV series will no doubt start from scratch and bringing back the same actors could end up being a major distraction.
