James Gunn became the co-head of the DC Studios in 2022 along with Peter Safran, replacing Walter Hamada. With some great ideas at hand, the director is mainly focusing on his upcoming movie Superman: Legacy but also handling other projects as well.
While announcing future movies and projects, James Gunn announced the animated series Creature Commandos which is set to release in 2024. And fans are not at all impressed by Gunn’s latest addition to the DCU.
James Gunn’s Upcoming Animated Series Is Unimpressive
With Gunn trying to make sense of a chaotic universe, the director is trying everything he can to create a decisive storyline with the amazing characters that DC Comics has to offer. Giving a chance to characters not known to the world, Gunn has some ideas in his mind but the fans are unimpressed.
As per a recent tweet, James Gunn is all set to create an animated series titled Creature Commandos. The series is slated for a release date in 2024 but fans are seemingly unimpressed and allege that the series is going to fail.
James Gunn confirms ‘CREATURE COMMANDOS’ is still set to release in 2024.

And here are some of the fan reactions from people around the world on whether the series will be another flop or a connecting story in the DCU.
Gunn continuing with this “nothing’s wrong, everything is under control, no delays” posture when the strikes still continue because the damn studios, one he works for, refuse to pay basic salaries to actors. Like the ones working for him in these film.
Too much meatriding here. pic.twitter.com/AmFqLkaD0s

The upcoming animated series Creature Commandos will be the first animated series under Gunn’s reign and will also be the first installation of his new DCU by James Gunn.
Matthew Vaughn Feels James Gunn Has An Advantage Over The MCU
Ever since Gunn took control of the DCU, people have been comparing the director to his movies in the Marvel Cinematic Universe and Zack Snyder’s movies. Veteran director Matthew Vaughn revealed to ScreenRant that Gunn has an advantage over the MCU.
“I think at least DC is under… I think James Gunn and Safran, they’ve got a good chance of popping, and hopefully [Kevin] Feige will go back to less is more and make less films and concentrate on making them great.”
With Creature Commandos in the works and Gunn working on Superman: Legacy, it does seem that the DCU will fall in line with a coherent story at hand. The upcoming series is slated for a release date of 2024 as audiences and fans hold their breath in anticipation about what James Gunn’s DCU is capable of.
