HBO has released new character teasers for Damon Lindelof’s upcoming superhero miniseries Watchmen, giving the spotlight to Academy Award-winning actress Regina King’s Angela Abraham as we get to learn about her double life. Set to premiere later this year, you can check out the videos below.
Set in an alternate history where “superheroes” are treated as outlaws, Watchmen embraces the nostalgia of the original groundbreaking graphic novel while attempting to break new ground of its own. Originally published as a 12-issue miniseries beginning in 1986, Watchmen quickly become one of sequential art’s most acclaimed stories. The original story centers on a murder-mystery before unfolding into a planet-altering conspiracy that ultimately asks where the fine line is drawn between heroes and villains.
