James Gunn addressed fan speculation about June Moone\u2019s presence at Rick Flag Jr.\u2019s funeral during a Peacemaker Season 2 Episode 5 watch party on Threads<\/a>.<\/p>\n

When asked why June wasn\u2019t at the funeral or pursuing Peacemaker, Gunn responded, \u201cWho said she wasn\u2019t? We saw literally one minute of the wake. And who knows.\u201d His comment opened the possibility that the character did attend, though the scene did not show her on screen.<\/p>\n

The fifth episode of the season, titled \u201cBack to the Suture,\u201d opens with a flashback to Rick Flag Jr.\u2019s funeral. In this sequence, Emilia Harcourt vows to make Peacemaker pay for his role in Flag\u2019s death.<\/p>\n

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.<\/p>\n

Episode 5 advances the storyline with Chris Smith\u2019s confrontation with Rick Flag Sr., who attacks him for killing his son. The episode explores Harcourt\u2019s 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\u2019s cybernetic upgrades after a crash and references Flag Sr.\u2019s past relationships.<\/p>\n

Fans in the Threads discussion speculated on June Moone\u2019s 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.<\/p>\n

Peacemaker Season 2 continues to expand the fallout from Rick Flag Jr.\u2019s death, weaving together past consequences with present confrontations. All five episodes released so far are now streaming on Max (formerly Max).<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
