Judge Rules on Watchmen Rights

Published by igpnicki under News Edit This

Watchmen MovieWatchmen fans eagerly awaiting the new Zack Snyder movie should expect more set backs. Twentieth Century Fox has been in the middle of a law suit, claiming copyright for Watchmen, although the new movie was made by Warner Bros. According to SciFi Wire a judge ruled on Christmas Eve that Fox Studios does indeed own the rights to Watchmen, a movie that’s set to open in March. I imagine Warner Bros. next step will be to either appeal the ruling or end up paying Fox Studios a big fat cheque. Either way, it’s likely we’ll see more delays in the release of this highly anticipated movie.
