New SWAMP THING Posters Offer a Better Look at the Creature
DC Universe has shared a series of new posters for their upcoming Swamp Thing series. These posters offer us our best look yet at the Swamp Thing creature, and I’m loving the design of the character! It’s right out of the comic books!
Even thought the series is going through some issues and the production has been shut down to cut the episode count down from 13 to 10, I’m still looking forward to seeing how it turns out. This is the one show that I’m excited about, and I hope that the rewrites that it’s going through to change up the ending don’t ruin it.
The series of poster were released as a way to help promote Earth Day.
Swamp Thing will follow "CDC researcher Abby Arcane, who returns to her childhood home of Houma, Louisiana, in order to investigate a deadly swamp-borne virus. She develops a surprising bond with scientist Alec Holland, only to have him tragically taken from her. But as powerful forces descend on Houma, intent on exploiting the swamp’s mysterious properties for their own purposes, Abby will discover that the swamp holds mystical secrets, and the potential love of her life may not be dead after all."
The series stars Will Patton (We Are The Titans, Halloween) as Avery Sunderland alongside Virginia Madsen (Sideways), who is playing his wife Maria Sunderland. The series also stars Andy Bean as Alec Holland, Derek Mears as Swamp Thing, Crystal Reed (Gotham) as Abby, Maria Sten (Straight Outta Compton, Channel Zero) as her friend Liz Tremayne, Kevin Durand (Lost, The Strain, X-Men Origins: Wolverine) as the villain Jason Woodrue, a.k.a. The Floronic Man, and Ian Ziering (Sharknado) as David Cassidy, a.k.a. Blue Devil.
James Wan is producing Swamp Thing for DC Universe under his Atomic Monster banner. The series will be directed by Len Wiseman, written by Mark Verheiden (Daredevil, Battlestar Galactica) and Gary Dauberman (It).
The series is scheduled for release in 2019 on DC Universe.
