Swamp Thing: watch the trailer for DC’s new TV series

Posted Filed under

DC has shared our best look yet at Swamp Thing, the new supernatural superhero series that is destined to live on the DC Universe streaming service. You can watch the trailer here…

The series boasts James Wan (Aquaman director) as a producer, with Len Wiseman (Underworld) directing the pilot episode and serving as an executive producer. Mark Verheiden and Gary Dauberman wrote the first episode.

Among the cast, we have Andy Bean and Derek Mears as Alec Holland and the eponymous Swamp Thing that he transforms into. Also appearing are Crystal Reed as Abby Arcane (a doctor investigating the dodgy swamp), and Maria Tsen as Liz Tremane (a local reporter who’s backing Abby up).

Here’s the brand new Swamp Thing trailer…

Swamp Thing will debut in the US on Friday 31 May. The DC Universe streaming service isn’t available in the UK yet, so it remains to be seen which British broadcaster (or streaming platform) will show it over here.

We’ll keep you posted as we hear more.
