Cusack Wants To Be A Watchman
John may become Dan
According to MTV's movie site, John Cusack of the famous Chicago Cusacks acting horde, wants to be a Watchman. And he's told director Zack Snyder all about it.
John wants to play Dan Dreiberg, a.k.a. Nite Owl II, Alan Moore and Dave Gibbons's tribute (so to speak) to the original Blue Beetle. Cusack wants the job, and he smiles hungrily when he says it.
No word on if his sister, Joan, wants in as well.

That's actually a tribute to Ditko's Blue Beetle, or Blue Beetle II, which is why it's Nite Owl II. :)
