Peacemaker director James Gunn explains why Judomaster's costume isn't comic-accurate in his DC show. 'I thought a non-Japanese character in a costume based on the Japanese flag would be odd, to say the least (as it was to begin with).'
Writer/director James Gunn explains why Judomaster’s suit in Peacemaker is green and not based on the Japanese flag like in the comics. Gunn’s The Suicide Squad introduced a handful of comic book characters into live-action, including John Cena’s Christopher Smith/Peacemaker. The film’s post-credits scene revealed the demented Captain America survived the events on Corto Maltese, which set up his self-titled HBO Max series.
Peacemaker sees its titular character and the 11th Street Kids thwart an alien invasion by the Butterflies. The Butterflies are led by their queen, who initially inhabits the body of Senator Royland Goff. In episode 3, “Better Goff Dead,” audiences are introduced to another comic book character in Goff’s bodyguard, Judomaster, a martial artist with an affinity for Flamin’ Hot Cheetos who also happens to be a firm believer in the Butterflies’ cause.
