Peacemaker's full opening dance number got released by James Gunn
Peacemaker's full opening number has been released by director James Gunn after the fans requested it. The director posted the full clip on Twitter after the show's big release this week. People have been sounding off about that intro from the moment that this DC Comics show hit HBO Max. The streaming service has to be pleased with the fan reaction so far. Although it was just three episodes to start off, there is clearly a hook for this series.
So, the song is having a bit of a renaissance now. However, Gunn has been adamant that there's another meaning to this song and dance behind the kind of kitschy throwback fun that permeates a lot of the director's work. He talked about it on Podly: The Peacemaker Podcast. Due to incredibly popular request, here are the opening credits of #Peacemaker. Watch now on @hbomax & fine streaming services around the world. @dcpeacemaker@JohnCena @thedanieb @jennlholland @freddiestroma @steveagee @robertpatrickT2 @itsnhutle @LochlynMunro pic.twitter.com/O3SgFtxA3W
— James Gunn January 14, 2022 "That was in the script from the beginning. There's a woman by the name of Charissa Barton who I hired to do the choreography for us...She did a fantastic job," Gunn explained."I really just wanted something very, very weird. I remember [Leota Adebayo actor] Danielle Brooks coming to me and going, 'What are we doing? What is this?' And I'm like, 'Just look totally serious.
"One of the fun things that you'll see as you watch the episodes of the series is [the opening credits] plays a different role in every episode," Gunn teased."I know people are going to be able to skip over it — I hope they don't — because it plays a different role in every [episode]. It just always tells a different story. You'll see as our story gets darker, and deeper, and more sad, that the dance itself kind of becomes more sad and more serious and less funny.
