I've liked Crudup since "Without Limits" and saw him in "The Pillowman" on broadway which was one of the best things ever. So I think he's a great choice for just about any role. However, I'm more than a little worried about "Watchmen." Alan Moore's adaptations have not been very kind to the source material.
