In a discussion panel during this year’s WonderCon 2009, Director Zack Snyder announced that the director’s cut version of the Watchmen movie could have a limited run in theaters. The director’s cut could hit the big screen as early as July. If and when the longer version of the film will run in theaters is dependent on the success of the shorter theatrical cut, which debuts on March 6th.
