James Gunn Says Peacemaker “Didn’t Fit” Into the DCEU Even Before Retcon

In a narrative twist known as retconning, the appearance of the Justice League in the finale of Peacemaker’s first season was reworked by Gunn. Instead of Leota reaching out to her mother for help, she summoned the Justice Squad – an elite metahuman team comprising Green Lantern Guy Gardner (played by Nathan Fillion), Mr. Terrific (Edi Gathegi), and Hawkgirl (Isabela Merced). This squad officially includes the likes of Superman (David Corenswet) and Supergirl (Milly Alcock), who serve as Kryptonian cousins on reserve within this team.
