Creature Commandos Cast & DC Character Guide

Creature Commandos is set to kick off James Gunn and Peter Safran"s new DC Universe with an animated series that includes some of DC"s strangest characters. Gunn revealed in January 2023 that he had begun writing a new TV series for his revamped DCU, confirmed to be Creature Commandos on January 31, 2023, when Gunn revealed part of the slate for the DC Universe"s Chapter 1, titled "Gods and Monsters". The seven-episode series will mark the first project in the new DCU, and is currently scheduled for release in 2024, with the DCU Superman movie releasing the year after.
Creature Commandos will adapt several characters from the comics that haven"t been seen or mentioned in previous live-action projects. Creature Commandos won"t be live-action either, but Gunn confirmed that the new DC Universe would share continuity between feature films, TV shows, and numerous animated series, so there"s an opportunity for these obscure characters to crossover into live-action in upcoming DC releases. The team shares similarities with DC"s Suicide Squad, as a group of monsters will be brought together to form a special black ops unit, also under the watchful eye of Amanda Waller herself.

Character: Grillo will be playing Rick Flag Sr. in Creature Commandos, the father to Joel Kinnaman"s Rick Flag from The Suicide Squad, and a member of the original Suicide Squad in DC Comics. Rick Flag died in The Suicide Squad, which should be a driving force for Rick Flag Sr. in the DCU.

8 Anya Chalotra as Circe
  • Active Since: 2017

Character: Circe is an especially exciting addition to the show"s roster, as she"s popularly theorized to be the main villain of the story, which would give the team a powerful enemy to go up against.
