The SwampThing movie should be based on this popular DC crossover:
After a few years in the ether, Swamp Thing is heading back to live-action. Tuesday, James Gunn and Peter Safran unveiled the upcoming slate for DC Studios' new DC Universe. Titled Chapter 1: Gods and Monsters, the franchise's first chunk of storytelling will feature both well-known properties like Superman: Legacy and The Brave and the Bold, and characters that are far from the A-list.
As a part of DC's New 52 initiative, Rotworld featured a crossover between Swamp Thing, then from Scott Snyder and Yanick Paquette, and Animal Man by Jeff Lemire and Steve Pugh. In the event, Swamp Thing serves as the avatar of The Green, or the body of all plant life on the planet while Animal Man is the protector of The Red, or all animal and human life on Earth. Together, the duo most stop The Rot, or everything else other than plant or animal life, from taking over the planet.
Speaking of which, Frankenstein—who is joining the DC Universe through the animated series Creature Commandos—also had a sizable role in Rotworld through his own comic series Frankenstein, Agent of SHADE.
