An actor who stars in the DCEU and Zack Snyder's Watchmen reveals what comic book adaptation they would like to direct, and it's a deep cut.

Patrick Wilson reveals he wants to direct an adaptation of the comic book Hawaiian Dick, which he was even approached about many years ago. The actor has appeared in multiple comic book adaptations, starting with Zack Snyder's Watchmen as Daniel Dreiberg/Nite Owl and two different DCEU roles as the voice of the U.S. President in Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice and Orm Marius/Ocean Master in Aquaman, which he reprises in Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom.

SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT During a recent interview with ComicBook, Wilson revealed he already has an idea for a comic book movie he wants to direct – Hawaiian Dick. The actor was even approached about starring in an adaptation of the deep-cut comic book "a hundred years ago," though he has no clue who owns the rights anymore. See what Wilson said below:

I've never said this, but I'll throw it out there. You know what I've always wanted to do, and always been fascinated by, is Hawaiian Dick... I was approached about that movie to act in it a hundred years ago with Frank Coraci. I have no idea where the rights are to that movie, but I always loved that series... Hawaiian Dick. Look it up!

A Hawaiian Dick Movie Sounds Interesting But Unlikely Created by writer B. Clay Moore and artist Steven Griffin, Hawaiian Dick was first published by Image Comics in 2002. Set in the 1950s, the story centers on a private investigator named Byrd who operates in the sunny and exotic locale of Honolulu while also incorporating elements of detective noir and supernatural mystery with a unique Hawaiian twist.
