James Gunn hints June Moone attended Rick Flag’s funeral in Peacemaker
James Gunn addressed fan speculation about June Moone’s presence at Rick Flag Jr.’s funeral during a Peacemaker Season 2 Episode 5 watch party on Threads.
When asked why June wasn’t at the funeral or pursuing Peacemaker, Gunn responded, “Who said she wasn’t? We saw literally one minute of the wake. And who knows.” His comment opened the possibility that the character did attend, though the scene did not show her on screen.
The fifth episode of the season, titled “Back to the Suture,” opens with a flashback to Rick Flag Jr.’s funeral. In this sequence, Emilia Harcourt vows to make Peacemaker pay for his role in Flag’s death.
Although the funeral scene lasts only a minute, fans continue to question who was present or absent. Gunn clarified that viewers saw only a fraction of the wake, implying that the short clip may have hidden other attendees.
Episode 5 advances the storyline with Chris Smith’s confrontation with Rick Flag Sr., who attacks him for killing his son. The episode explores Harcourt’s complicated feelings toward Chris as she claims their past meant nothing but still helps him against A.R.G.U.S. It also introduces Sasha Bordeaux’s cybernetic upgrades after a crash and references Flag Sr.’s past relationships.
Fans in the Threads discussion speculated on June Moone’s potential involvement. One user asked if she knew Peacemaker killed Flag, while another suggested that Rick Flag Sr. or A.R.G.U.S. could recruit her. Gunn did not confirm future developments but stressed that fans should not assume she was absent from the funeral.
Peacemaker Season 2 continues to expand the fallout from Rick Flag Jr.’s death, weaving together past consequences with present confrontations. All five episodes released so far are now streaming on Max (formerly Max).
