Here’s what’s eating the fans – we barely know anything about the plot. However, it seems like the events in ‘Creature Commandos’ take place after the series ‘Peacemaker’. The latter is heading for a second season in the coming months.
Also joining the fantasy fray is Viola Davis, who will star as the formidable Amanda Waller. She used to be in charge of the ill-fated project, Task Force X. Now, Waller has found a new team to execute her plans, except this time, it’s a bunch of monsters. Her strategy? To guide the Creature Commandos secretly, without risking human lives.
DC Studios has big plans for their rebooted universe with ‘Creature Commandos’ marking the start. Peter Safran, the co-head of DC Studios, shared last year that there would be 10 stories under the title ‘Gods and Monsters’. They aim to tell stories inspired by love, compassion, and the human spirit. Well, talk about keeping the excitement sky-high!
