James Gunn Drops Exciting New Update on DC’s ‘Waller’ Series”

As a seasoned gamer and DC Universe enthusiast, I must admit that the anticipation for “Waller” has been building like the tension in a high-stakes superhero battle. The fact that James Gunn, the mastermind behind some of the most exciting developments in the DCU, is at the helm only amplifies my excitement.


In the year 2022, it was revealed that “Waller” is a new series, stemming from the popular show “Peacemaker.” Viola Davis reprises her role as Amanda Waller in this production. Unlike “Peacemaker,” which has a comedic tone, “Waller” will adopt a more serious approach to reflect the character’s gravity. The mood of the show will align with this somber atmosphere.

Initially planned for a 2024 premiere, the release of the show now remains uncertain due to James Gunn’s involvement in other DC Universe productions.

Due to James Gunn’s limited discussion about the show in recent conversations, some fans are wondering if it’s still being produced. Fortunately, Gunn, known for his active social media presence and engagement with fans, has confirmed that the project is currently under development. However, he hasn’t revealed any further details at this time.

It seems that Waller might not be actively developed right now, since there’s no mention of it in recent interviews discussing future projects.

It is yes.

Back in the recent past, I was thrilled to learn from James Gunn himself that the storyline for Waller unfolds post-Peacemaker Season 2. This clarity in the sequence of events is a breath of fresh air! As things stand now, it looks like Creature Commandos will kick off first, leading us into Superman: Legacy, and then we’ll catch up with Peacemaker again, following the events of Superman. Can’t wait to see how it all unfolds!

For the movie “Waller,” the rest of the cast members are yet to be announced, with the exception of Viola Davis who is returning to her character from the previous DCEU. Davis will first appear in the DCU in the upcoming film “Creature Commandos,” scheduled for release on December 5, 2024.
