Peacemaker director James Gunn reshot scenes across five episodes after actor change:

✖ A last-minute change in actors caused series creator James Gunn to reshoot scenes across five episodes of Peacemaker with Freddie Stroma replacing the previously cast Chris Conrad. In November 2020, Conrad, known for TV roles in Young Hercules and Patriot, joined John Cena in The Suicide Squad spinoff series as the violent Vigilante .

Explaining Conrad's departure in an interview with Screen Rant, Gunn described the impact the actor swap had on the production of Peacemaker: "[Stroma] came in late. We had already shot five-and-a-half episodes with another actor, who's an incredibly talented guy, but we were on different pages about certain things, and I don't think he wanted to continue on the series in the long run," Gunn said."So we brought Freddie in, five-and-a-half episodes in, and I reshot all of his scenes...we re-shot. I directed all of the scenes with Vigilante in five and a half episodes.

Five months after recovering from his mission to Corto Maltese in The Suicide Squad, Christopher Smith is back to fighting for freedom — his own. Recruited by Task Force X shot caller Amanda Waller for a world-saving assignment known as Project Butterfly, Smith joins forces with a new squad: handler Emilia Harcourt , tech and tactics expert John Economos , new recruit Leota Adebayo , and team leader Clemson Murn .
