No matter what’s going on behind the scenes, and it’s hard to even know at this point, the fact remains that the James Wan-produced “Swamp Thing” is headed to the DC Universe streaming service on May 31st, with ten episodes airing as part of the debut season. We were treated to the first teaser trailer last week, and this week brings some new promo images.

Thanks to Twitter’s @UberKryptonian, who removed the text from one of those meme-style marketing images, we’ve got our best look yet at Derek Mears as the titular “Swamp Thing”!

Join the DC Universe today with a 7-day free trial.

Mears stars alongside Jennifer Beals, Virginia Madsen, Ian Ziering, Will Patton, Andy Bean, Crystal Reed, Kevin Durand, Henderson Wade, Jeryl Prescott and Maria Sten. Directors include E.L. Katz and Len Wiseman.

“Swamp Thing” centers on CDC researcher Abby Arcane (Reed). When she returns to her childhood home of Houma, Louisiana, in order to investigate a deadly swamp-borne virus, she develops a surprising bond with scientist Alec Holland — only to have him 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.

Ziering will play Daniel Cassidy, also known as Blue Devil. Durand stars as Jason Woodrue, the brilliant but abrasive scientist who longtime fans of DC Comics also know as the transmogrified super-villain called Floronic Man.

The series, based on the DC characters created by Len Wein and Bernie Wrightson, is written by “Ash vs. Evil Dead” writer Mark Verheiden and IT co-writer Gary Dauberman.

The series aiming to be scary and rated “R” violent, primarily based on Alan Moore’s run. It will also feature a practical creature suit, which Mears will be donning.
