Anticipation is mounting as Warner Bros. Discovery has officially announced the release date window for the much-awaited animated TV show, Creature Commandos, set to premiere on Max as part of the revamped DC Universe under James Gunn’s creative vision.
The exciting news broke during the 2024 Annecy International Animation Film Festival, with Warner Bros. Discovery pinpointing December 2024 as the timeframe for Creature Commandos’ arrival. This animated series, based on the comic series by J.M. DeMatteis and Pat Broderick, is slated to be the inaugural venture into the newly redefined DC Universe.
As of now, specific details about Creature Commandos are fairly scarce, but the buzz is sure to increase as Warner Bros. Discovery hosts their own panel dedicated to the series at the festival later in the week, where more information is expected to emerge.

With an impressive array of talent, the voice cast for Creature Commandos includes Frank Grillo as Rick Flag Sr., Maria Bakalova lending her voice to Princess Ilana Rostovic, Indira Varma voicing the Bride of Frankenstein, Zoë Chao as Nina Mazursky, and Alan Tudyk taking on the role of Doctor Phosphorus. Top talent such as David Harbour as Eric Frankenstein, Sean Gunn playing dual roles as G.I. Robot and Weasel, Steve Agee as John Economos, Viola Davis returning as Amanda Waller, and Anya Chalotra as the enchantress Circe round out the ensemble.
