Writer/director Vincenzo Natali (Splice, Cube) took to Twitter to post the first four pages from his aborted Swamp Thing script. Natali was confirmed in April of 2010 to direct a reboot but the project never seemed to take off.
According to SuperHeroHype:
Natali’s script is almost a direct adaptation of writer Alan Moore’s first issue of his celebrated work on the character, with the descriptions nearly matching the cover and panels from “The Saga of the Swamp Thing” #20 (pictured above). The inclusion of General Sunderland further signifies the influence from the seminal arc on the script and the final page Natali posted seemingly leads into the events of Moore’s “The Anatomy Lesson,” an issue detailing the autopsy of the Swamp Thing which is often cited as among the best of Moore’s work with the character.
The pages can be read below.
