One DC Movie Character’s Horrifying Past Makes Him Completely Irredeemable

Under the direction of DC Studios’ James Gunn and Peter Safran, the DCEU is on its way out. In its place, the DC Universe will come to fruition, establishing a brand new shared universe of live-action and animated film and television projects. The first small screen endeavor of the DCU is «Creature Commandos,» which follows a ragtag band of characters such as Eric Frankenstein (David Harbour), the Bride of Frankenstein (Indira Varma), and Dr. Phosphorus (Alan Tudyk). Among these names is Weasel, who likely seeks to do unspeakable things in the new DC franchise.

Even though Gunn and Safran are taking a full-on reboot approach to the DCU, Sean Gunn’s Weasel is one of only a handful of known holdovers from the DCEU. Alongside him is John Cena as Christopher «Peacemaker» Smith, Viola Davis as Amanda Waller, and Xolo Maridueña as Jaime «Blue Beetle» Reyes. Then again, for all we know at this juncture, perhaps the version of these characters, as well as Weasel, in the DCU will be soft reboots of their DCEU counterparts. If this is the case, maybe Weasel can score a clean slate in the new universe and move away from his child-murdering past.

Weasel’s next adventure, «Creature Commandos,» aims to premiere sometime in 2024.
