Who Are DC’s Creature Commandos?
Originally conceived by J.M. DeMatteis and Pat Broderick in issue #93 of Weird War Tales, the Creature Commandos are a unique team, born from human-monster unions, who execute government missions on the battlefield. The cast for the upcoming TV series will feature Eric Frankenstein (played by David Harbour), Bride of Frankenstein (Indira Varma), Rick Flag Sr. (Frank Grillo), Dr. Nina Mazursky (Zo? Chao), Doctor Phosphorus (Alan Tudyk), a GI Robot (Sean Gunn), and Weasel (also played by Sean Gunn).
In addition to the main cast, we’ll see Anya Chalotra playing Circe, Maria Bakalova portraying Princess Ilana Rostovic, Viola Davis in the role of Amanda Waller, and Steve Agee acting as John Economos.
Will the Creature Commandos Appear in Live-Action?
As an ardent fan, I can hardly contain my excitement as I share this fantastic news! The stellar cast of Creature Commandos will indeed be back for live-action roles in the near future. Notably, their characters have been confirmed to make an appearance in Gunn’s upcoming Superman movie slated for summer 2025. Moreover, Grillo is set to reprise his iconic role as Rick Flag Sr. in the much-anticipated second season of Peacemaker.
“Harbour shared an intriguing perspective on his portrayal of Frankenstein in an interview with ‘Happy, Sad, Confused’ this year. He explained that while Frankenstein was designed to be a refined, educated man, he still harbors an unusual, inhuman anger and confusion. This made the role fascinating to play, and Harbour found James, who creates this universe, to be an exceptional individual. With numerous possibilities for character development, there could be live-action, animated, or any other versions of these characters.”
The “Creature Commandos” are set to make their premiere only on Max in December. Scroll down to catch a glimpse of the initial looks at the variant cover versions for the series, released by DC in November 2024.
