David Corenswet’s portrayal of Superman was undeniably captivating in the 2025 film, yet the production also provided a spotlight for additional superheroes such as Guy Gardner, Hawkgirl, Mr. Terrific, and Metamorpho to make their mark. Nathan Fillion and Isabela Merced took on these roles, and they are set to reappear in their DC Universe characters when Peacemaker’s second season graces our screens on the 2025 TV schedule soon. In anticipation of this upcoming DC television series, Merced has showered Fillion with heartwarming compliments and a humorous account of their text conversations.
During an interview with TVLine, the actress from “The Last of Us” shared her thoughts on working with the main star of “The Rookie”. She didn’t hesitate to express her admiration for him, but she also mentioned his quirky habit of sending self-centered texts.
Among the people I’ve collaborated with, Nathan Fillion is undoubtedly one of my top picks. He truly stands out! This fellow has an extraordinary way of communicating – he often replies to texts with self-gif images. Moreover, even when he’s not in a picture, he finds a way to include himself by adding stickers of his likeness.
If Nathan Fillon’s internet was flooded with gifs of him like mine is, I’d likely start using them in my texts as well. His addition of self-stickers to photos where he isn’t even present makes it all the more amusing. At least he manages to keep conversations lively!

HBO Max offers plans starting at just $9.99 per month, providing access to stream hit shows like Peacemaker and a collection of older DC movies and TV series. If you opt for the With Ads plan, you’ll pay monthly, or save up to 20% by prepaying for an entire year. Check out this deal now!
I had the pleasure of sharing that Nathan Fillion truly cherishes people and delights in their company, not just within a professional setting. His remarkable patience towards everyone left me in awe, especially him extending extra efforts to ensure my comfort during our time filming Superman. To give you a glimpse, here’s a snippet of what I remembered:
He understood me genuinely and generously provided some of his fidget gadgets since I have ADHD, though I hadn’t been diagnosed yet. It seems he recognized my condition, and he said something like, “Here, let me share these fidget toys with you.” Honestly, it was one of the most thoughtful gestures I’ve ever experienced.
Beyond already being captivated by Isabela Merced, it’s worth mentioning that he had expressed his affection for Superman even before he landed the role of bowl-cut Guy Gardner, one of Earth’s Green Lanterns, in the first DCU film. Towards the end of the interview, Merced concluded by commenting on this point.
His home is heavily decorated with Superman and DC Universe-related items, reflecting his deep-seated fandom. Not only could you count on him for emotional comfort, but also for knowledgeable insights about Superman and other characters within the DC Universe. Truly, he embodies the spirit of a dedicated fan.
Nathan Fillion has secured another DC role, this time as Guy Gardner, adding to his impressive portfolio which includes Hal Jordan from various animated Green Lantern movies, Steve Trevor in the 2009 Wonder Woman animation, Vigilante in Justice League Unlimited, and T.D.K. in The Suicide Squad. His numerous Marvel roles throughout the years further solidify him as a comic book media icon. In terms of real-life interactions, Merced shares that working with Fillion was a delightful experience, so let’s hope for more collaborations in the future!
Although it’s unclear when Isabela Merced will reprise her role as Hawkgirl after “Peacemaker” Season 2, or if she’ll ever star in a standalone movie, there is exciting news about Nathan Fillion’s character Guy Gardner. He will return to action in the HBO series titled “Lanterns,” slated for release in 2026. In this show, Kyle Chandler portrays Hal Jordan and Aaron Pierre plays John Stewart.
