According to the New York Times an LA judge has ruled that Fox Network owns the rights to Watchmen which was filmed by Warner Brothers…The fate of the Watchmen is now in jeopardy.
Fox acquired rights to the “Watchmen” graphic novel in the late 1980s for the producer Lawrence Gordon, but eventually dropped its own plan to make a movie from its story, about the underside of life for superbeings.
Mr. Gordon later pursued the project with Universal Pictures, and then with Paramount Pictures, before shooting it with Warner and Legendary under an arrangement that allows Paramount to distribute the film abroad.
