- Peacemaker Season 2 confirms that another DCEU film is canon in the DCU
- The film in question is 2016 Suicide team
- A single line of dialogue in the last episode of the series reveals why
Peacemaker Season 2 has just confirmed another film from the now disappeared DC universe (DCEU) is officially canon in the DC (DCU) universe.
The third chapter of this season, entitled “ Another Rick Up My Sheve ”, reveals that David Ayer is very offbeat of David Ayer Suicide team Film, released in 2016, is part of the restored cinematographic franchise from DC studios. A unique line and apparently thrown just at the start of season 2 episode 3 is all the confirmation we also need.
Complete spoilers immediately follow for “another Rick Up My Sheeve” and Suicide team.
The last entry of the HBO Max Show opens onto a flashback concerning Emilia Harcourt and the return of a major character from 2021 The suicide team movie. This film shares some similarities with Suicide teamIncluding the live representation of Margot Robbie from Harley Quinn, but the films were considered independent Peacemakersecond season. To find out more about the disorderly nature of the chronology of the DC film, read our guide DC Films in order.
But I am off track. Season 2 episode 3 reveals that before the events of The suicide teamHarcourt had no strings attached to sex with Rick Flag Jr – and it is this flashback scene that cements Suicide teamPlace of DCU Canon.
Halfway through the conversation of the pair, a woman named June is mentioned. Harcourt says that she is not happy to lie to June on her and Flag Jr’s secret situation, before Flag Jr jokes that June would tear a hole in the middle of the earth if she became aware of their romantic falsité.
The faithful of DC comics do not need more details on the importance of which is June. For all those who are not a pure and hard DC, it is a reference to June Moone, alias the supervillain more commonly called enchantress. To summarize its original story of comics, Moone, an independent artist who attends an costume celebration in an old castle during his literary beginnings in April 1966, became possessed by a powerful entity after having tripped in a secret chamber. In short, she is one of the most powerful black magic practitioners who operates in DC Comics.
Anyway, the reason why this is important is because of what we learn Suicide team. According to the first act of the DCEU film, we discover that Flag Jr and Moon are in a relationship. It is in spite of Moone already enchanting also, who – spoiler – ends up being the big villain of this film.
Fortunately for Moone, she is finally freed from the strange property of the enchanting when Flag Jr crushes the magic heart of the enchantress (that is to say the source of his powers) with a little help from Quinn. Flag Jr and Moone, then, apparently, they are still happy after the moment. Well, until Flag Jr and Harcourt start sleeping together behind his back anyway.
Nevertheless, the fact that the duo discusses Moone in the last entry of the television program DCU Chapter One effectively confirms the events represented Suicide team are canon in the DCU.
The co -owner of DC Studios James Gunn, who is also the editor -in -chief and principal director of Peacemakerdoubled on this subject during the entry of episode 3 of season 2 of the official Podcast of Peacemaker, with Gunn reconfirming the JR flag that we see in The suicide team And this Peacemaker Flashback is the same Suicide team. Therefore, events in Suicide team – Or, at the very least, the relationship of Flag Jr and Moone – is now considered to be Canon DCU.
As far as I’m concerned, it is well closed on a conversation on the question of whether Suicide teamWhich is one of the most classified DC films of all time (he has a critical partition of 28% on Rotten Tomatoes), is part of the narrative tapestry of the DCU. Ayer’s original cup of the film, which some fans have asked to see for years, may never see daylight, but it is nevertheless a beautiful tribute from Gunn to include it as part of its new cinematographic universe and Peter Safran.
