Grillo said of Rick Flag Sr.’s role in the DCU:
“I have a bit of a Sam Jackson vibe. In this case, he can kind of swing a little bit, like in supermanand has a key, key role, and then of course a greater role peacemakerone Very vital role and then leader of the team biocommando. So, yeah, I don’t know what the future holds, but I think Rick Flag is the head of ARGUS, just like Jackson in the MCU. I mean, you never know. It’s kind of endless.

“I’m telling you, he and Peter sent me all the scripts – I read them all in one day, and then I read them again. I wish I could send you the text message I sent them, because I read There were a lot of scripts. I wasn’t getting scripts from Steven Zailllian and top people in Hollywood, so when they sent me these scripts, I was like, “Oh my God. “My thoughts were exactly yours. It was funny, it was dirty, it was dirty at times, it was violent, and it was on point. I was blown away. I wish I could text you. I must have texted them Six text messages saying “guys”. Guys… Gunn, this is awesome. I think this is great. On its own, it’s pretty cool.
“I came to understand that he was breathing very rarefied air. He was an anomaly. I mean, James Gunn is a wonderful writer and he was so much fun to work with. I read his words and thought, ‘I don’t All this needs to change. “I told him many times during this period peacemaker‘Hey man, what if I do this? May I? He said, “Well, try it and let me know.” Of course, 10 times out of 10 I try my little fix, and my response is, ‘Nope.’ He knew exactly what he was doing. Rare.
He also briefly talked about peacemaker Season 2 and versus John Heenan:
“I always fight guys bigger than me, but he’s a big guy. He’s a big guy. We do get involved in it – I won’t reveal anything about the Peacemaker and what he thinks of my son and because of that It’s an interesting thing how he feels about himself, so we do get into some tangles, but I don’t know what people are going to expect.
He also talked about his feelings on the set superman:
“I’m not a superhero kid. I’m not a comic book kid, but the only superhero — and I’m talking about the TV show, the original TV show — is Superman. To me, he’s the ultimate and the only one. Of superheroes, maybe no one is second to that, and Batman is nowhere near that, right? These are two superheroes that I grew up with, but stepping on set and knowing Gunn was at the helm, even. It’s also a gift that I’m working in, and I’ll tell you one thing – and I hope I don’t get in trouble for this – I peeked at a little bit of the trailer, I’m not kidding. Not exaggerating, my skin was hot and I had goosebumps, this kid, David, by the way. [Corenswet]will become a superstar. A superstar. He’s just as amazing as the rest of the actors in the movie, and that’s just James’ performance. I think it would be this Movie.
