Turning a comic book or novel into a film or television series always comes with several challenges, as Cord Jefferson, one of the writers behind the Watchmen limited series and the director of the upcoming American Fiction, knows all too well. Since the two mediums are very different from one another, there are always a couple of elements that need to change in order to bring the story from the page to the screen. During a recent interview with Collider's Perri Nemiroff, Jefferson talked about how adapting Watchmen helped him turn Percival Everett's book, "Erasure," into American Fiction.

Hear all about that and more in this American Fiction interview!
