295. Peacemaker with Actor/Comedian Steve Agee

Peacemaker was a breakout hit in 2022 for HBO Max, its parent company, and the DC Extended Universe.  Steve Agee plays John Economos.  Agee played John in 2021’s The Suicide Squad and then reprised the role in Peacemaker. Since debuting on The Sarah Silverman Program in 2007, Agee has been on countless TV shows and movies. He met James Gunn, who put him in Guardians of the Galaxy, Vol. 2, and subsequently in the DC properties when Gunn wrote and directed.

In this episode, Agee talks about his evolving career and then gives a detailed recount of how he met Gunn.  He then explains how he thought the Suicide Squad would be it for him and DC, and he explains how he learned about Peacemaker. He talked glowingly about the cast of Peacemaker, and how they made that incredible opening sequence. He also tells great stories from the set, including that famous finale scene in Peacemaker with John Cena, Jason Momoa (Aquaman), and Ezra Miller (Flash).
