James Gunn Says Waller Series Is Still in the Works as Development Proves Slow

Development lags under DC Studios' script-first policy, with Peacemaker prioritized.

Overview

  • James Gunn confirmed he and Peter Safran remain actively developing the Amanda Waller TV series.
  • Viola Davis is attached to reprise Amanda Waller in a drama distinct from Peacemaker’s tone.
  • Safran has said the team has taken multiple passes without fully landing the concept, with strikes also slowing progress.
  • DC Studios will not start production without a finished script, and no start date or release window has been announced.
  • Peacemaker Season 2 moved ahead after Gunn finished those scripts quickly, while Christal Henry and Jeremy Carver continue to steer Waller’s writing.
