We spoke w/ JamesGunn about Peacemaker, the secrecy around Episode 8, that opening song by Wig Wam, giving Peacemaker a bald eagle for a best friend, and more.
With Peacemaker now streaming on HBO Max, I recently spoke with writer-director James Gunn about making the fantastic series. During the interview, he talked about why he didn’t want anyone to see Episode 8 early, using the Wig Wam song “Do You Wanna Taste It” in the awesome opening credits, giving Peacemaker a bald eagle named Eagly as a best friend, if he writes with budget in mind, why he always gives himself more time in the shoot to film the 3rd act, and more.
RELATED: John Cena on ‘Peacemaker,’ the Opening Credits, and Why Filming His Underwear Action Scene Was Painful I've watched seven episodes. I've watched those opening credits in every episode because they're so good. Please tell me you have a longer version of it. How was it, because you've obviously come from working in lower budget environments and you've worked in massive budget environments, when you were writing Peacemaker, was there any thought in your mind about the budget or were you sort of just writing with whatever you wanted to write and I'll deal with it later?
