Excerpts:


"February 28, 2009 - Anticipation for Watchmen was clearly at a fever pitch today at Wondercon, as an absolutely packed room gathered in the morning to see director Zack Snyder and stars Jeffrey Dean Morgan ("The Comedian"), Billy Crudup ("Dr. Manhattan"), Malin Akerman ("Silk Spectre"), Jackie Earle Haley ("Rorschach") and Patrick Wilson ("Nite Owl").
"

and


"As for Nite Owl, Wilson remarked, "I certainly think he has the most heart I guess," adding with a laugh, "If I can put everyone else down. He has heart! I love Dan. You're Pulling for Dan the entire time - To get the damn suit back on or to get it up. It really doesn't get more basic than that. What's so cool about him is his identity through his suit and what that means to him."
