Earlier today,
we found out that cameras had stopped rolling on
Swamp Thing prematurely, and the show will only air 10 of its originally scheduled 13 episodes. Perhaps as a response to this news getting out, DC Universe has released the first teaser.
It's very brief, but right at the end we do get a quick glimpse of the Earth Elemental as he rises from the water, and he looks like he's stepped right out of the pages of the comics.
Today's report also suggested that the future of DC Universe was in doubt, but we're hearing that the streaming service is doing just fine and has no intention of folding.
Swamp Thing is being developed as a one-hour show, and has Mark Verheiden
(Battlestar Galactica) and Gary Dauberman (
It) on board to write the pilot. They'll also executive produce alongside Michael Clear and James Wan. Len Wiseman will helm the first episode.
Swamp Thing is set to premiere on May 31st.
