The Morning After Pod<\/a> asked Gunn whether Jennifer Holland\u2019s Harcourt could become \u201cPeacewrecker outright.\u201d Gunn responded, \u201cI think you would have a very hard time ever getting Emilia to wear a costume,\u201d referencing an earlier dialogue in the season where Harcourt dismissed the idea of suiting up as \u201cstupid.\u201d<\/p>\nGunn explained that in the DC Universe, characters need specific motivations for donning costumes, citing Superman and other heroes who have narrative reasons. He contrasted this with characters like Judo Master, who continue to wear costumes without explanation, implying eccentricity rather than purpose.<\/p>\n
Gunn noted, \u201cIn DC, it\u2019s like people put on a costume, they have to have a reason for it,\u201d emphasizing that Harcourt\u2019s trajectory differs from traditional costumed characters.<\/p>\n
Harcourt\u2019s emotional arc has been a central part of Peacemaker Season 2, particularly in Episode 6\u2019s pivotal scene with John Cena\u2019s Peacemaker. Gunn highlighted her vulnerability, saying, \u201cShe thinks she\u2019s so worthless that she thinks she\u2019s sparing John her,\u201d while also stressing that her story explores acceptance of love and self-worth. This focus suggests her development centers more on personal growth than adopting an alter ego like Peacewrecker.<\/p>\n
Gunn indicated in the podcast that the show teased the \u201cPeacewrecker\u201d title as a joke rather than a concrete plan, keeping Harcourt\u2019s role grounded in her established dynamic with Peacemaker and the larger DCU narrative. He stated, \u201cShe would have to be a different person\u201d to fully take on that mantle.<\/p>\n
Although the concept of Harcourt becoming Peacewrecker surfaced on screen and in interviews, Gunn addressed the idea directly. He clarified that current DCU plans make the transformation unlikely.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
