James Mangold Wants To Direct 'Swamp Thing' Movie For DC Studios

Director James Mangold is looking for another directing project and he may have found it with Swamp Thing.

The project is in the early development stages and a script hasn't even been written but Mangold is a huge Swamp Thing fan, and DC loves the idea that Mangold wants to do it and has made him an offer. DC Studio's co-CEOs James Gunn and Peter Safran announced a Swamp Thing movie but didn't make any director announcements on Tuesday. Today, Mangold tweeted out a photo from the Swamp Thing comic book which Gunn then re-tweeted.

Swamp Thing movie would be way down the road as Mangold will be helming the Bob Dylan biopic A Complete Unknown starring Timothée Chalamet after Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny.

Mangold is credited with executive producing, co-writing, and directing Logan, the third Wolverine movie starring Hugh Jackman.
