First SWAMP THING Trailer Teases The Floronic Man & Blue Devil


Get ready for a case of Swamp fever.

DC Universe has released the first trailer its upcoming TV series Swamp Thing, based on the DC Comics elemental creature.  The one-minute, 25-second trailer gives us our first good look at the new series, emphasizing horror along with teasing other DC characters such as the Floronic Man and Blue Devil.

The trailer opens in Houma, Louisiana, with some men in a small motorboat traveling the swamps at night, only to stop and presumably have a confrontation with Swamp Thing.

Next, we see a young girl lying on the floor of a classroom with nose bleeding.  This is followed by a disturbing image of a man stabbing someone and the young girl screaming.

We cut to some sort of examination room, where Abby Arcane (Crystal Reed) is blissfully unaware that the body she's examining has come back to life as some sort of plant creature with growing vines.  The creature lashes out with vines and grabs Abby as her assistant Harlan Edwards (Leonardo Nam) looks on helplessly.

We then see Lucilia Cable (Jennifer Beals), the sheriff of Marais, aim her flashlight at Alec Holland (Andy Bean), followed by a young woman drowning underwater.  

Maria Sunderland (Virginia Madsen) is shown being visibly upset at someone and pointing at them, which is followed by a man wearing a pig mask and wielding a hatchet.

We get a quick glimpse of Ian Ziering as Daniel Cassidy, who opens a drawer that reveals his Blue Devil mask and costume, followed by Jason Woodrue (Kevin Durand), the future Floronic Man, examining the plant creature.

In the final scene, Abby apparently gets stranded in the swamp, leading to her encounter with Swamp Thing as he emerges from the water and crawls towards her in a monster movie-like fashion.
