Swamp Thing will be the fourth original series coming to DC Universe as the fan-favorite creature makes it to the world of live-action at
last. From
Aquaman director James Wan, the series is currently in
production, with the pilot being directed by Len Wiseman (
Lucifer, The
Gifted) and he is being quite generous with fans who are hungry for closer
looks at the series.
Shared on his Instagram page, Wiseman gave fans a behind-the-scenes look
with the two stars of the show, Crystal Reed and Andy Bean as Abby Arcane and Alec Holland respectively. But don’t worry, you get a video too as we get a look at the swamp itself, possibly being the scene where it all happens for our dear Alec. Watch his posts below.

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, both horrifying and wondrous—and the potential love of her life may not be dead after all.”
