Watchmen Chapter I can be launched on Digital on August 13 and on 4K Extremely HD and Blu-ray on August 27. Watchmen Chapter II can be launched later in 2024.
Primarily based on the groundbreaking graphic novel sequence by author Alan Moore and illustrator Dave Gibbons, Watchmen Chapter I adapts the gritty, Chilly Battle superhero saga that redefined the comics medium again within the Nineteen Eighties.
The official synopsis for Chapter I reads: “In an alternate world historical past set in 1985, the homicide of a government-sponsored superhero attracts his outlawed colleagues out of retirement and right into a thriller that threatens to upend their private lives and the world itself.”
As produced and directed by Brandon Vietti from an adaptation by J. Michael Straczynski, Watchmen Chapter I goals to faithfully recapture the visible aesthetic of the unique graphic novels illustrated by Dave Gibbons.
