We’ve been looking forward to the beginning of James Gunn’s new DCU since he took over last year. While all the Superman and Supergirl news has kept us buzzing, we always knew the first project out of the gate would be the animated Creature Commandos. At SDCC 2024’s “Jim Lee and Friends” panel, Lee brought out Gunn to show all in attendance the first teaser for the series, due out in December. And because Max wants people to watch, they sent it out wide too! Check it out below.
The teaser opens with Amanda Waller (Viola Davis) bringing Rick Flag Sr (Frank Grillo) into Belle Reve to meet his new team. Presumably this takes place after The Suicide Squad, because a) this is Rick Flag’s dad, and 2) congress says Task Force X can be no more. Waller, ever the stickler for loopholes, says congress has disallowed human prisoners to go on missions. Non-humans are fair game. So monsters it is!
Flag’s team consists of fish lady Nina Mazursky (Zoe Chao), G.I. Robot (Sean Gunn), Weasel (also Sean Gunn), Dr. Phosphorus (Alan Tudyk), the Bride (Indira Varma), and Frankenstein (technically’s monster, David Harbour). The tone seems very much in keeping with the Suicide Squad violent irreverence, which makes sense. Other cast members include Steve Agee as Economos, Maria Bakalova as Princess Ilana, and Anya Chalotra as Circe.
With Waller, Economos, and Weasel’s involvement, it seems this series will overlap with Peacemaker and The Suicide Squad in some way. Certainly more than I initially thought. We knew Peacemaker season two would be part of the DCU. I’m honestly okay if they figure out a way to make The Suicide Squad new canon also. In any case, it’s good stuff.
Creature Commandos debuts on Max this December.
