My Revolution of PARTs

The Marvel Cinematic Universe and the DC Extended Universe have set the standard for interconnected storytelling with major crossovers from the franchises' biggest heroes. Heavily involved in both franchises is director/producer James Gunn, who will soon have three Guardians of the Galaxy movies under his belt in the MCU. On the Warner Bros. side, Gunn has also led the way on The Suicide Squad and Peacemaker in the last few months. Peacemaker recently ended its first season on HBO Max with a shocking appearance by the Justice League, who showed up for a few seconds just after Peacemaker and his team stopped the butterfly invasion. Body doubles were used for both Superman and Wonder Woman, but fans got an actual interaction between Jason Momoa's Aquaman and Ezra Miller's Flash in this unexpected scene.

Veteran filmmaker James Gunn is doing double duty on the superhero side of things, with him working for both Marvel and DC. Gunn is spearheading John Cena's Peacemaker on HBO Max, a spin-off from  The Suicide Squad , as its executive producer, director, and writer, while he is busy filming scenes for Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3  under the Marvel Studios banner.  At this stage, exact plot details of Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 are still being kept under wraps, but Gunn already confirmed that it will be the last time that fans will see this current iteration of the team.

Now, the filmmaker has opened up about that major re...

The show that currently has everybody talking is HBO Max’s  Peacemaker  in the DCEU. Starring John Cena, the series sees his character after the events of  The Suicide Squad  getting scooped right back up and put into another team he doesn’t want to be a part of. However, this time, Chukwudi Iwuji’s Clemson Murn is leading the operations. Murn is a no-nonsense kind of guy—or, to be technical, a no-nonsense Butterfly. The man behind the team leader has done a fantastic job at embodying this new and engrossing character, who has no past in any DC Comics source material. ADVERTISEMENT Clearly, the project’s writer and director James Gunn felt the same, as he brought Imwuji onto his next film,  Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 . The details of that role aren’t known, but rumors heavily suggest he will be playing The High Evolutionary, someone who would be one of the main villains, if not  the  big bad. So what was it like working with Gunn and going from some...
