Zack Snydersays Tom Cruise wanted to play a pretty surprising character in his 2009 comic book movie Watchmen.
“I wanted Tom Cruise for Ozymandias.

Tom wanted to play Rorschach,” Snyder told the Happy Sad and Confused podcast.
But I certainly would have considered Tom in retrospect if I hadn’t had Jackie."
Watchmen, based on theDC Comicslimited series of the same name, hit theaters in 2009.

To this day, Cruise has yet to star in a superhero movie.
Watchmen also, of course, has a Snyder Cut consisting of 24 minutes of additional footage.
Watchmen is streaming now on Max.
