“We’re supposed to be on the same damn team!” During the New York Comic-Con this weekend, WB & DC revealed a first look trailer at another new James Gunn DC project in the works. Creature Commandos is an adult animated series that will be streaming on Max at the end of this year as one of the first offerings from Gunn’s new DC Studios. Creature Commandos is a continuation of James Gunn’s The Suicide Squad & Peacemaker series, but fully animated this time. “You wanted monsters? You got motherf*ckin’ monsters.” The DC anti-hero story follows a group of military super humans composed by a human leader, a werewolf, a vampire, Frankenstein’s monster, and a gorgon. Amanda Waller decides to send out a batch of monsters on her missions instead of humans. Starring Steve Agee as Economos, Maria Bakalova as Princess Ilana, Anya Chalotra as Circe, Zoë Chao as Nina Mazursky, Frank Grillo as Rick Flag Sr., Sean Gunn as GI Robot & Weasel, David Harbour as Frankenstein, Alan Tudyk as Dr. Phosphorus, Indira Varma as The Bride, and Viola Davis back as Waller. This looks crazy! Even more violent than the movies + series before.
Here’s the first full trailer (+ poster) for James Gunn’s Creature Commandos, from Max’s YouTube:
Following the events of the first season of James Gunn’s series Peacemaker (2022), Amanda Waller is no longer able to put human lives in jeopardy for her clandestine operations as with the Suicide Squad and Team Peacemaker. Instead, she assembles a black ops team of monsters called the Creature Commandos. Creature Commandos is a series created and written and showrun by DC Studios leader James Gunn, director of the movies Slither, Super, DC’s The Suicide Squad, and Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 1 – 3, plus the upcoming Superman: Legacy. Based on DC characters and produced by DC Studios and Warner Bros Animation. Based on the comic by Pat Broderick and J.M. DeMatteis. Final director credits are not available yet. Executive produced by James Gunn, Peter Safran, Sam Register, & Dean Lorey. Warner Bros will debut the Creature Commandos series streaming on Max starting December 5th, 2024 late this year. Who’s in?
