During the whole Warner Bros/Fox Watchmen case we didn’t really hear much from the creative team behind it, as it was really a matter for the studios. However now everything is sorted Watchmen and X-Men writer David Hayter has spoken out and made some controversial comments about 20th Century Fox:
“I had worked for 20th Century Fox before, and I was fully under the belief that they had the potential to shut down the movie and remake it themselves out of pure spite and meanness. They’re a rough group of people … and somewhat ethically challenged.”
“… My experience told me that they could shut down this movie, and lock it away in Rupert’s vault … and make it the most unseen desired cult movie of all time … but I was extremely concerned. Many producer friends of mine said the same thing as Alex – that they’re just going for money or whatever — but I was like, ‘Yeah, okay, but there’s something beyond money going on at that studio and it has to do with … Satan.”
