Även om Watchmen inte tycks ha blivit någon enorm publiksuccé, så har det ändå gått bra. Faktiskt så bra att skaparen nu utlovar att det kommer mer av den varan. Det är i en intervju hos LadBible som Damon Lindelof säger:
"If the idea is right, and if there is a compelling reason to do it, then I'd consider it. I haven't had that idea yet. The other thing about Watchmen is that it doesn't belong to me. Alan Moore, Dave Gibbons and John Higgins created this thing, I had the opportunity to be its steward for a couple of years. There is going to be more Watchmen, independently of whether I do it. It should be done by someone who really deeply cares about it and has a reason to."
Det blir alltså nödvändigtvis inte Lindelof själv som gör mer - men mer blir det. Om nuvarande säsong säger han även att han betraktar den som en avklarad och fristående historia:
"It was designed to be a complete story much in the vein of shows like Fargo or True Detective, with an understanding that there are many Watchmen stories to tell, but there's not a big cliffhanger in the final episode. I think the majority of the mysteries - at least the ones that are central to the stories that we tell - are resolved by the end of the ninth episode."
