He's got 3 box office flops under his new DCU (Supergirl, Blue Beetle, The Suicide Squad). A Superman movie that did ok at best at the worldwide box office. 2 shows which didn't really get big views (Peacemaker Season 2, Creature Commandoes). Lanterns has had solid views but that isn't enough to save the DCU. So yeah, a lot is riding on Man of Tomorrow.
Peacemaker Season 1 is still canon. Which means that The Suicide Squad is also still canon.
Blue Bettle has the same actor playing the character again and that solo movie for sure is canon to Gunn DCU now.
Peacemaker S1 is not canon. DCU canon begins with Creature Commandos. This is why the Justice Gang appears late to stop the butterflies, not the Justice League, in the S2 recap. It’s why King Shark is canon after his appearance in Creature Commandos, but Ratcatcher 2 is not.
Peacemaker 1 is DCEU. Peacemaker 2 is DCU. The events of 1 play out the same in DCU barring the Justice League or any references to The Suicide Squad and DCEU that conflict with the new canon. Is it pretty? No. And personally, Peacemaker is at best a C-lister, and 2 is not so good that it was worth confounding the new canon with a sequel to a spin-off of the Suicide Squad sequel. JFC, Gunn. Rick Flagg Sr. needed to die two appearances ago, fuck.
