Rorschach’s Journal, April 18th, 2024: Zack Snyder appeared on Happy Sad Confused podcast; said Tom Cruise wanted to play Rorschach

It’s a given, in this day and age, that the streets are extended gutters, and the gutters are full of blood, and when the drains finally scab over, all the vermin will drown. But did we also know that there are some pretty interesting Hollywood what-ifs floating in that river of blood, particularly surrounding Zack Snyder ’s 2009 Watchman movie? Appearing on Josh Horowitz ’s Happy Sad Confused podcast, Snyder cleared the record on some ancient Watchmen casting rumors.

Lion For Lambs, Valkyrie, Mission: Impossible III, and Knight And Day on the horizon were all feeling the burn of Cruise’s couch-jumping relationship with Katie Holmes and the Matt Lauer interview where he called psychiatry a pseudoscience, criticizing Brooke Shields for using medication to treat postpartum depression. That’s the Cruise that wanted to play Rorschach, the guy who’s constantly covered in “human bean juice” and bashing child predators to death with a meat cleaver.
