James Gunn’S Commando of creatures wrapped up its first season on Max, and it was an incredibly fun series with an interesting lineup of misfit monsters!
During a recent interview, Gunn, the creative force behind the series, spoke about the return of a beloved character The suicide squada notable voice actor who steps in, and what’s next for this team of monstrous antiheroes in season two.
In the season finale, Amanda Waller relinquishes leadership of Belle Reve’s “Nonhuman Internment Division” to The Bride, cementing her as the new head of Task Force M.
The team now includes Nosferata, GI Robot, Khalis the Mummy, Weasel, Dr. Phosphorus and a familiar face… King Shark.
Fans will remember Gunn’s King Shark The suicide squadwhich was voiced by Sylvester Stallone. This time, however, Dierich Bader steps in to voice the character, and Gunn had nothing but praise for Bader’s work.
Gunn shared in an interview with Rotten Tomatoes: “I thought it was fantastic. It’s difficult because you’re dealing with Sylvester Stallone’s iconic King Shark performance, but Diedrich did an amazing job. He’s an amazing guy and an extraordinary voice actor.”
When asked if Steve Agee, who did the motion capture for King Shark, is in attendance The suicide squadcould return for a live-action iteration, Gunn said:
“My guess is no. I think John Economos is paying the bills for Steve now, and he probably doesn’t want to go back in that horrible, uncomfortable bodysuit. Who knows, maybe he’ll want to.”
Looking ahead, Gunn hinted at exciting developments for the Commando of creaturessaying:
“We would love to see these characters continue, together, separately or both. We already know that Rick Flag Sr. is in Superman and it has an important, important role Peacemaker season 2. We’ll see who else pops up here and there…”
The future looks bright for these unconventional heroes, and the crossover potential within the broader DC Universe is exciting:
Commando of creatures is a wild blend of action and dark humor, following a secret team of imprisoned monsters sent on high-stakes missions too dangerous for ordinary humans. Gunn’s affection for these characters shines through, as he described the roster:
“Nosferata, King Shark—so it’s basically King Shark—The Bride, a new and improved GI robot, Khalis, and of course, Weasel and Phosphorus.
“I’m kind of interested in how we make a mummy. I’ve never been a big mummy guy. I’m a werewolf guy, to be honest with you.”
The cast includes Maria Bakalova, Davide Porto, Indira Varma, Sean GunnAND Alan Tudykamong others, with Gunn serving as writer and executive producer.
All episodes of Commando of creatures are now streaming on Max.
