DC's Final Swamp Thing Trailer Delivers Plant-Based Horror

The final trailer for the upcoming DC show Swamp Thing has been released. This is the latest series from the streaming platform DC Universe, and it hits the service this Friday, May 31.

The final trailer lays out the story and gives us a good idea of what to expect from this horror-themed show. Crystal Reed plays CDC investigator Abby Arcane who is called back to her Louisiana hometown to investigate a mysterious contagion that has affected the whole community. There she meets up with biologist Alec Holland (Andy Bean), and they start to investigate the illness. But there's something else lurking out there in the swamps, and this trailer shows that the series is set to deliver on the scares. Check it out below.

Swamp Thing also stars Virginia Madsen (Candyman), Jennifer Beals (Flashdance), and Will Patton (Halloween). Derek Mears, who is best known for portraying the iconic killer Jason Voorhees in the 2009 reboot of Friday the 13th, plays the creature. The Conjuring director James Wan is the show's executive producer.

In his review of Swamp Thing Episode 1 for GameSpot, Mat Elfring stated that it exceeded expectations and described the show as "something completely different from [other DC] shows and from anything else DC has put out to date."

The first season of Swamp Thing was originally intended to be 13 episodes. However, it was reported last month that production was abruptly halted and the season will now run for 10 episodes.

In related news, it was was recently reported that Game of Thrones star Iain Glen has been cast as Bruce Wayne in the second season of the DC Universe series Titans, which is scheduled for a fall 2019 release.
