Once we started seeing the cast posting about wrapping their respective runs on "The Suicide Squad" spinoff series, series creator James Gunn sharing looks at some amazing custom-made rings and patches as wrap gifts, and we learned who else would be helming episodes, we knew the writing was on the wall- and now it's official[...]

With it looking more and more like the "The Suicide Squad" spinoff series is inching closer to a formal wrap ahead of its January 2022 debut, we've got a quick update on HBO Max and series creator James Gunn's John Cena-starring Peacemaker With Gunn handling the writing duties on all eight episodes and directing five[...]

So the last time we checked in with how things were going with production on HBO Max and series creator James Gunn's "The Suicide Squad" spinoff series Peacemaker, Gunn and the team were picking up the pace to make sure they hit that January 2022 premiere window Well, it sounds like things went well because[...]

James Gunn has been (very optimistically) speaking out about his upcoming interpretation of the WB/DC team, The Suicide Squad Now he's providing clarity on how it feels different from his previous work with Marvel. With Gunn and his work in Guardians of the Galaxy, it seemed like the director became one of the more popular brains[...]

But on August 1, "The Big Red Balls' are going "suicidal" when The Suicide Squad writer/director James Gunn joins hosts Nicole Byer (Netflix's Nailed It!) and John Cena (aka Peacemaker, and dude who wears his costume off the set a little too much- said with love) for the special crossover event Wipeout: The Suicide Squad[...]

Finally, someone has listened, and that someone is superstar director James Gunn. Guardians of the Galaxy and Suicide Squad director James Gunn.

One of the first moments of the trailer for James Gunn's The Suicide Squad is a clear confirmation that Bloodshot put Superman in the ICU But who is this Superman?! We've seen our fair share of Superman incarnations in film and television; without a current actor donning the cape, there's a Super-absence in the DC realm[...]

After another visit from The Spoiler Finger (along with its "plus one") and a casting change that sees Freddie Stroma (Bridgerton) taking over the role of Adrian Chase aka Vigilante from Chris Conrad, Peacemaker James Gunn and the team are under the gun (okay, not really but it was too good to pass up) to[...]

But will it be this reality? It may be more likely than you think. Guardians of the Galaxy and Suicide Squad director James Gunn. Guardians of the Galaxy and Suicide Squad director James Gunn took to Twitter to reveal that, yes, he has talked to Marvel and DC about doing a crossover, and no, he doesn't think[...]

Screenwriter and director James Gunn has come a long way in his blockbuster career, but he's making sure to take time to appreciate the film that he believes jumpstarted his career. In celebration of the 19th anniversary of the 2002 live-action adaptation of the iconic cartoon property Scooby-Doo, the director took to Twitter, where he praised[...]

As we wind closer to the release to the much-anticipated DCEU entry from James Gunn with The Suicide Squad, the director took to Instagram to show off a still featuring four of his stars featuring the Ratcatcher 2 (Daniela Melchior), The Thinker (Peter Capaldi), Bloodsport (Idris Elba), and Polka Dot Man (David Dashmalchian) "Squad Undercover[...]

So the last time we checked in with Peacemaker series creator, writer, and director James Gunn, it was about a week ago when he jumped on IG Stories to field some questions from fans Along with some very kind words about series star John Cena's improve skills, Gunn also gave fans the heads up that the[...]

Okay, enough with the hard-hitting exposes on the flagrant disregard for dummies' lives on the set of HBO Max and writer/director James Gunn's "The Suicide Squad" universe series Peacemaker This time around, we're back to take a look behind the scenes on what makes the production roll from two very different perspectives- both offered by[...]

We're thinking that might just be the point where HBO Max's Peacemaker series creator, writer, and director James Gunn has gotten to based on one of his last on-set tweets His tweet starts normal enough, revealing how they exploded a building that had a dummy in the doorway when it went off- and how producer[...]

Welcome back to our random coverage/close-to-stalking of HBO Max and series creator, writer, and director James Gunn's Peacemaker– and if there was ever a post that deserved the adjective "random" it would be this one Checking in with Gunn to see how life is going on the production side of things, we were treated to[...]

Now, in the previous "poop chute" back-n-forth he had with writer/director James Gunn, Cena admitted to helping himself to a few of the costumes (with suggestions on future adjustments)- so there's a bit on-ten-ton evidence right there So we started thinking, "Holy crap, is John Cena so busy that he doesn't have time to have[...]

If we're being honest and putting aside the quality work that he does behind the camera, the biggest reason why we like covering Peacemaker writer/director James Gunn? Scratch that- the two biggest reasons? First, that he's open and honest with his views and positions, and will just as easily jump into a random Twitter thread to[...]

And that James Gunn is ignoring him on Twitter. Brother Power the Geek was created by Captain America co-creator Joe Simon in 1968 Derived heavily from Mary Shelley's Frankenstein right down to reanimation with the use of lightning, Simon was attempting to capture the sort of "wandering outcast philosopher" characterization that made Marvel Comics' Silver Surfer[...]

Sometimes, you spend so much time with another person at work that it almost feels like they're family or someone intimately close to you- thus, the expressions "work wife" and "office hubby." With Peacemaker writer/director James Gunn and The Suicide Squad spinoff series star John Cena, it feels like we've watched a very Step Brothers-like[...]

Writer/director James Gunn continues impressing us with his multi-tasking prowess, following up on yesterday's The Guardians of the Galaxy Holiday Special and Peacemaker update with a birthday wish for The Suicide Squad and HBO Max series spinoff star John Cena Now where all of that "being impressed" stuff comes in is with Gunn's social media post[...]

Even with a ton of well-deserved attention being focused on his August-premiering The Suicide Squad, writer and director James Gunn doesn't have much (or any) time to rest- not when he's still working on his and HBO Max's spinoff series Peacemaker with John Cena returning to his "Suicide Squad" role But because the two worlds have[...]

One of those thrilling projects is the upcoming film The Suicide Squad by James Gunn, with a star-studded adventure that brings together some of DC's strangest characters together for a common goal — self-preservation. The film is something that has consistently maintained positive buzz (a major plus for the studio) and after Gunn's work on Guardians[...]

So we're taking a little detour with our coverage of HBO Max and series writer/director James Gunn's "The Suicide Squad" spinoff series Peacemaker and tracking John Cena as he undertakes an especially important and potentially dangerous mission: telling the truth about the sick psychological warfare going on between himself and HBO host John Oliver[...]

Although James Gunn probably will do now It's a cyclical thing Earlier today, Bleeding Cool ran a very spurious article celebrating a conversation between comic book creator and longtime friend of the site Gail Simone and film director and brand new friend of the site, James Gunn Inspired by the trailer to his new film,[...]
