Un 'behind the scene' :

Ce qui était prévu en cas de succès :

One source close to the production told Business Insider that the show had a possible three-season arc, and the feeling on set was that it could have gone past that if it was a hit, with characters spinning off into their own shows. The source used the specific example of a potential "Justice League Dark" team-up series.

Tiens, des amis de John Rocha, travaillant dans le business et le studio en question, lui ont assuré que l'annulation était bien dû à des différents et non à cause de l'argent, ils n'auraient juste pas apprécié l'équipe créative. ^^

Gary Dauberman sur ce qu'aurait été la saison 2, à savoir plus anthologique :

“Season one is very much like a movie in that it has a beginning, middle, and end, and is one story told over the course of ten episodes and what I liked a lot about the comics is that there’s like werewolf in a hospital and things like that, so we would have had episodes like an anthology with standalone stories.

The swamp is very much the kitchen sink of supernatural terror and, as you know, you can go into different subgenres of horror with that and I was really looking forward to exploring that in season two and getting into some of the more twisted horror tales from the later comics. It just would have got weirder.

For people who don’t know the character, season one was telling people what Swamp-Thing was all about but season two was going to be more about getting into the deeper, twisted, weirder, and gross ideas.”

En gros, se serait juste devenu une série plus couteuse.

Je paries quand même qu'ils n'auraient pas pu s'empêcher d'inclure un petit fil rouge comme dans les séries d'antan.

Mark Verheiden (showrunner) sur les raisons de l'arrêt:

"I think the one thing I'd like to clear up is this idea that somehow the show was wildly over budget. The other one I've heard is that the state of North Carolina had rigged on its tax breaks - neither of those are true at all, and they're an insult to our producers, who did a fantastic job keeping the show on track budget-wise. I just don't like hearing that at all. It never had a chance to really show what it could do because we were canceled the day after the first episode came out so on streaming."

"The short version is I don't really know why things went down the way they did. We never got a particularly expansive answer to that. Sometimes bad things happen, I'm sure there were reasons, it was not a cheap show. Warner Brothers was going through yet another one of its reorganizations, which it seems to do every year and a half now."

"There may have just been a fundamental misunderstanding about the show we were making versus the show they were expecting although there were certainly no secrets about the show we were making. James Wan is not the guy who makes Barbie. He makes horror shows, and Gary Dauberman, he's not crafting Hallmark shows - he's doing Annabel and the Salem's Lot, so they knew what they were buying - I've never been quite sure, and at this point, I don't really care because it's water under the bridge."

Ce qui était prévu pour la suite :

"Quite frankly, we [were] building up to bringing in a new big bad who is sort of the big baddy of the comics. We [were] going to do a story involving Arcane, this very dark presence in the Swamp Thing Universe. Obviously, we didn't get to do that. In terms of Justice League Dark or any of that stuff...we heard the rumors like anybody else, but it had nothing to do with us or me in any way in terms of what we would think of or do."
