Nite Owl?

From Cinemablend, Alright I hate stories like this as much as all of you, because let’s face it, there’s really no story. An actor says he’d like to do something, that’s great. It’s basically meaningless, but we all jump on it anyway. I’d love to star as Michael Knight in a movie version of Knight Rider, but that’s probably not going to happen. John Cusack however, has a slightly better shot at playing Nite Owl or Rorschach in Zack Snyder’s impending movie version of “Watchmen.” The non-story comes from MTV where one of their entertainment reporters brought up the subject of Watchmen. Apparently MTV thinks everyone on the internet wants Cusack to play Nite Owl in the film, though to be honest I haven’t seen his name mentioned by anyone anywhere. This was the first Cusack had heard of it too, but he seemed to think the idea was pretty cool. Cusack is apparently a big fan of the comic. He says, “I thought that was a really, really cool comic. I’m into it. I like those comics a lot.” He went on to mention his affinity for Rorschach, though anyone who has read the comic knows that Cusack would be insanely perfect for Nite Owl. John Cusack really needs to be in this movie. I hope Snyder is paying attention. Get Cusack’s agent on the phone man! He seems eager to do it.
