Alex Garland is best known for writing DREDD as well as directing Ex Machina and the upcoming Annihilation starring Natalie Portman. During a recent Reddit Q&A, the filmmaker was asked about which comic book property he would be interested in turning his attention to and he name-dropped a very unexpected character. Who? Well, as we mentioned above, he'd like to work with Swamp-Thing.
Bear in mind that Warner Bros. is hard at work on finally trying to make Justice League Dark a reality, a movie which has lost a number of directors and would obviously feature Swamp-Thing in a lead role.
If the studio has any sense, they would look at hiring Garland to take charge of this project because he would be a great fit for this particular DC Comics adaptation and could even work on the script to bring it to where it needs to be. Would he actually be interested in taking charge of the entire supernatural team, though? That we don't know right now but it would certainly be fun to see this become a reality.
