Swamp Thing hits DC Universe on May 31!

As if you didn't already know, Len Wiseman is directing a new series based on SWAMP THING from a script by Mark Verheiden and Gary Dauberman. The cast includes Andy Bean as biologist Alec Holland and Crystal Reed as CDC Doctor Abby Arcane. We recently passed along word that Wes Craven's original SWAMP THING actress Adrienne Barbeau might be joining the series and today we know just when we'll all be able to check it out!

SWAMP THING hits DC UNiverse on May 31st.

Woo Hoo! I don't know about you but I'm really looking forward to checking out this new version of the classic character. Especially considering James Wan (THE CONJURING and INSIDIOUS) and Gary Dauberman (writer of THE NUN and ANNABELLE) are behind the scenes. BRING IT ON!

Here's the rundown for the new series:

Abby Arcane investigates what seems to be a deadly swamp-born virus in a small town in Louisiana but soon discovers that the swamp holds mystical and terrifying secrets. When unexplainable and chilling horrors emerge from the murky marsh, no one is safe.

Andy Bean and Crystal Reed star in this new series along with Maria Sten, Jeryl Prescott, Jennifer Beals, Virginia Madsen, Will Patton, Henderson Wade, Ian Ziering, and Kevin Durand, with Derek Mears as Swamp Thing himself. James Wan's company Atomic Monster is producing Swamp Thing in association with Warner Bros. Television. Wan, Wiseman, Verheiden, and Dauberman also serve as executive producers on the series with Michael Clear. Rob Hackett is co-producer. Swamp Thing will be released through the DC Universe streaming service on May 31st.
