We have a little more on yesterday's story of Gerard Butler being lined up for a role in Zack Snyder's Watchmen adaptation. Zack Snyder said this of the Internet rumours that he talked to Butler about the role, from About.com through Filmstalker.... "" talked to him on the plane and he said, 'Are we going to talk about this?' I said, 'Yes, eventually we should.'...I have a particular part for him in the movie but I haven't told him even yet what it is..." On the news that Tom Cruise was once set for a role... I dont think Toms going to do it. I wanted him to, but I dont think hes going to. I think hes busy on something else....Hes awesome. Tom and I talked about the movie and he was so cool that hopefully theres something else for him to do somewhere. Maybe not this moviemaybe another one. The site site also talked to Gerard Butler, who said this of any involvment in Watchmen... You know, Zacks mentioned it but we havent talked about it anymore. So I dont know. I havent read a script; I dont know what the role is. Id love to work with Zack again. I think hes awesome, but more than that I cant say. At least things are a little more clearer now then. Butler in Watchmen sounds good on paper, but the more I think about it, the more I'm not so sure. I just can't see what role he could fill? source - filmstalker, about.com
