Lindelof goes on to say that the story will, however, “be remixed” and that the events of the Watchmen comics are canon.
In a five-page letter posted on his Instagram, creator Damon Lindelof spoke candidly to fans about the Watchmen series at HBO that is currently in pre-production.
The showrunner explains that they have no desire to “adapt” the 12 “issues Mr. Moore and Mr. Gibbons created thirty years ago.
Lindelof, whose The Leftovers concluded its three-season run last year, is best known for co-creating the hit ABC series Lost.
