Watchmen teasers offer first glimpse at Tim Blake Nelson’s new character Looking Glass

June 7, 2019 by Amie Cranswick

After unveiling a first trailer for Watchmen last month, HBO has now released a trio of teaser promos for the upcoming small screen spinoff to Alan Moore and Dave Gibbons’ seminal comic book epic, which give us our very first glimpse of the new masked character Looking Glass, portrayed by Tim Blake Nelson.

Nelson previously discussed his role as Looking Glass, revealing that it was originally planned as a minor part, although creator and showrunner Damon Lindelof decided to expand this once the actor became attached. That being said, all we know about the character at present is that he’s got a rather shiny, reflective mask. Take a look for yourself in the teaser promos here…
