Production for HBO Max‘s Peacemaker is coming to a close as director James Gunn continues to celebrate the actors who have wrapped production. At the end of June, Gunn praised the completed work of Annie Chang, Lochlyn Munro, Christopher Heyerdahl, and Rizwan Manji. Now, he’s back on social media to announce Danielle Brooks, Steve Agee, Chukwudi Iwuji, Robert Patrick, and Jennifer Holland have wrapped. In addition to John Cena, who is playing the titular role, Agee and Holland are also reprising their roles from The Suicide Squad.
“The last two days we wrapped @thedanieb, @jennlholland, @steveagee & Chukwudi Iwuji on Season One of #Peacemaker. I love making a TV show. I love everything we’re doing with it. And I love making it with these people. Can’t wait for you to see them laugh, cry, & kick ass,” Gunn wrote. “We have one day left tomorrow with @JohnCena & @freddiestroma. Day 131. I am so so sad,” he added. “How could I not mention we also wrapped the incomparable @robertpatrickT2? He has been a joy from start to finish. I saw him a little more than a year ago on Perry Mason & loved him so much I wrote the role of Auggie Smith, #Peacemaker’s father, for him. We had never met,” Gunn concluded.
