Watchmen director Zack Snyder confirmed that Tom Cruise wanted to play masked vigilante Rorschach in the 2009 movie.
“I wanted Tom Cruise for Ozymandias. Tom wanted to play Rorschach,” Snyder recalled. “He wanted to play Rorschach, which I mean, obviously he could have done. But yeah, we had Jackie already, and Jackie is like, unbelievable. But I certainly would have considered Tom, in retrospect if I hadn’t had Jackie.”
The 2009 movie was directed by Snyder from a screenplay written by David Hayter and Alex Tse. It also starred Billy Crudup, Malin Åkerman, Matthew Goode, Patrick Wilson, Carla Gugino, Jeffrey Dean Morgan, and more. During its theatrical run, the film received mixed reviews and an underwhelming box office performance., Cruise is expected to reprise his iconic role in a third installment, which is still currently in development at Paramount Pictures.
