WATCHMEN: CHAPTER 1 Gets Digital Streaming Release Date

Warner Bros is set to release their new animated feature WATCHMEN: CHAPTER 1 on VOD and digital platforms next month, arriving on August 13th, 2024.

The film is directed by Brandon Vietti and written by J. Michael Straczynski, and features a voice cast that includes Matthew Rhys, Katee Sackhoff, Titus Welliver, Troy Baker, Adrienne Barbeau, Corey Burton, and Michael Ceveris.

In an alternate world history shaped by superheroes, once-celebrated "costumed adventurers" have been banned by a society disenchanted with vigilantism. Now, in 1985, the murder of The Comedian, a hero-turned-government operative, draws the attention of Rorschach, the last of the outlawed vigilantes. Rorschach’s investigation embroils his retired colleagues, Nite Owl, Silk Spectre, Dr. Manhattan and Ozymandias, in conflict with their pasts, with each other and in a mystery that threatens their lives and a world on the brink of war.
