Creature commands season 2 was announced on December 23, 2024. As we reported at the time, Max confirmed that a new season of DC Studios’ first animated series was in the works, so we’ll definitely get more adult animated action at some point.
We don’t expect to see it Creature commands however, return to our screens soon. There are many other DC Studios projects in various stages of development, including but not limited to James Gunn’s Superman film, Lanterns, Peacemaker season 2, and Supergirl: Woman of Tomorrow. Gunn, one of the co-heads of DC Studios, is involved in two of these projects, so it will be August – the month Peacemaker 2 is expected to debut – before he gets to write the scripts Creature commands‘next entry. Gunn wrote the scripts for his predecessor, so I suspect he will also be in the lead roles for season 2.
Provided he doesn’t hire a new head writer for the next chapter of the series, I’d be surprised if the Season 2 screenplays are finished before the end of 2025. If that’s the case, Creature commands season 2 may not come out until late 2026 – and I’m incredibly optimistic about that. Animated shows can take years to make, so it could be as late as 2027 or even 2028 before it’s released.
Creature Commandos season 2 likely cast
Major spoilers follow Creature commands season 1.
The cast of Creature commands Season 2 hasn’t been announced yet, but based on last season’s finale, I expect it to be:
- Indira Varma as the bride
- Sean Gunn as GI robot and weasel
- Alan Tudyk as Doctor Phosphorus
- David Harbor as Eric Frankenstein
- Viola Davis as Amanda Waller
- Steve Agee as John Economos
The four characters voiced by the first three actors were the only remaining members of Task Force M’s original lineup after the credits of Season 1, Episode 7 rolled. As I discussed in my Creature Commandos season In the season ending explanation article, they are still part of the titular team going into next season, so I would expect Varma, Tudyk, and Gunn to reprise their roles in Season 2.
Frankenstein of Harbour, who is not part of the group but played a major antagonist role in season 1, should also return. Davis’ Waller and Agee’s Economos could do the same, especially since Task Force M reports directly to the ARGUS commander-in-chief and her right-hand man.
The season 1 finale also revealed that three new metahumans had joined Task Force M. Vampire humanoid Nosferata, the mummified Khalis (confirmed by Gunn per a Rotten Tomatoes YouTube video), and King Shark – last seen in 2021 The suicide squid film – will be part of next season’s line-up. There’s no word on which actors will voice them, but the credits for season 1, episode 7 featured Diedrich Bader (American housewife, Napoleon dynamite) as the voice of King Shark, so I suspect he’ll do it again in season 2.
Some other people seen last season, like Frank Grillo’s Rick Flag Sr, could also be part of the proceedings. As Grillo told Ny Breaking, he will be “on a mission” for justice Superman And Peacemaker season 2 first though.
However, it’s unlikely that Circe and/or many of Pokolistan’s minor characters, including Sergei, will return. They were only involved because of the way the season 1 story went. With that story wrapped up before season 1 ended, I’m confident they won’t be seen in the second part of one of the best Max shows.
Two people who definitely won’t be back for another monster mash are Zoe Chao’s Nina Mazursky and Maria Bakalova’s Princess Ilana Rostikov. Ilana killed Nina in the final episode of season 1 and was subsequently killed by The Bride in retaliation for Nina’s execution by the Pokolistan monarch. For what it’s worth, Bakalova told Ny Breaking that she hasn’t given up hope of playing Ilana again. Unless she appears in a flashback sequence, I seriously doubt she will.
Speculation about the story of Creature Commandos season 2
Full spoilers ahead ahead Creature commands‘first season.
Creature commands The story synopsis of season 2 has not yet been revealed. It will also be a while before that happens, so we can only speculate on how things will go from here.
For starters, things will largely depend on what happens in other DCU Chapter One movies and TV shows. With the likes of Superman (one of the most anticipated new movies of 2025) and Peacemaker Season 2 is coming in the coming months and the events of these productions will likely have an impact on the plot of the second season of this show.
One thing I’m already confident about, however, is that Task Force M will be sent on another deadly mission to tackle a planet-wide threat. Last season, the eponymous team was initially tasked with protecting Princess Ilana from Circe, an Amazonian sorceress who is one of the three major ties to Wonder Woman’s eventual DCU debut. However, when it became apparent that Ilana was planning to conquer the world using her high-tech Pokolistani forces, Task Force M was asked to eliminate her instead, which they duly did, even at the cost of Nina Mazursky’s life.
Whatever quest they’re sent on, I expect we’ll see more team members clash against each other. After all, they were brought together by circumstance – that is, by their incarceration in Belle Reve prison – and thus did not voluntarily join forces to take on a greater enemy. With Nosferata and King Shark among the gang’s newcomers, who have their own unique personalities, motives, desires, fears, and likely traumatic backstories, there will be plenty more melodrama and R-rated humor to enjoy next season.
It is also possible that Creature commands season 2 will continue to explore new parts of the DCU. The show’s first season did a fantastic job from a universe-building perspective, with cameos from iconic DC heroes like Batman in episode 5 and B-list DC Comics villains, the debut of the Justice League DCU, albeit in one of Circe’s premonitions, references to famous cities including Metropolis and Gotham City, and many more Easter eggs. By the time Season 2 comes out, some of DC’s most prominent heroes and villains will be established in Gunn and co-chief Peter Safran’s new cinematic universe, so there will be more potential for them to take on Task Force M to come. in Creature commands‘next chapter.
Creature Commandos season 2 trailer: is it here?
No. That won’t be there for a while. I’ll update this section once a trailer is finally released.
Will Creature Commandos season 2 have a sequel?
Nobody knows. As I said before, Creature commands was only renewed for a second season at the end of 2024. Until it launches, we won’t know if a third installment will also get the green light.
Even if DC Studios announces a third season, there’s no telling when it will even air. When Gunn revealed the full DCU Chapter One lineup (well, full at the time anyway) in January 2023, it was confirmed that 11 projects will be part of this first phase of the DC Universe. Since then there have been three more – the second season of this show, a Dynamic duo animated film starring iconic Robins Dick Grayson and Jason Todd, and a Mike Flanagan-penned Clayface film – have been announced. So it’s becoming an increasingly busy time for DC Studios. The fate of a third party Creature commands participation will depend on whether there are still stories worth telling, whether it remains popular among viewers and whether there is the time and resources to make another season. In short: keep your eyes open.
