HBO的剧版《守望者》开始选角：雷吉娜·金(《美国重案》《守望尘世》)、唐·约翰逊(美剧版《迈阿密风云》)、蒂姆·布莱克·尼尔森(《逃狱三王》《无敌浩克》)、小路易斯·格赛特(《军官和绅士》)、阿德莱德·克莱蒙丝(《寂静岭2》《昭雪》)、安德鲁·霍华德(《血仇》)加盟。该剧主创Damon Lindelof刚写了长信给粉丝预警：剧集将是基于原作漫画世界的新原创故事，结合当今时代，会有一些新角色。剧中，“超级英雄”们仍被世界看做法外之徒。
Lindelof说的从这些角色也可知一二：这六名演员的角色尚未官宣，但外媒deadline透露：金饰演的是一个名为Angela Abar的人物，小路易斯·格赛特饰演Old Man，霍华德饰演Red Scare，克莱蒙丝饰演Pirate Jenny。有漫画已知的老角色，也有尚不知来头的新角色。
