Gunn’s Superman reboot is biw available to stream and has since added a special commentary track where the director lets slip a forthcoming twist in his superhero spin-off series starring John Cena.
During a scene where Lex Luthor and government officials are discussing how to deal with the potential threat of Superman, Gunn revealed that a scene for Peacemaker was shot on the same day due to it featuring the same cast members.
"The Saturday after we did [this Superman scene], we shot a scene from Peacemaker [season 2] episode eight, because it had a lot of the same cast from Superman," Gunn said.
"It had James [Hiroyuki Liao] as Mori and Frank [Grillo] as Rick Flag, and then a couple of other people. I think this will have already aired when this director's commentary comes out, but I'm not sure, actually – I'll leave the secrets there."
