Frank Grillo, known for portraying Crossbones in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, has once again hinted at his part in James Gunn’s rebooted DC Universe, specifically in the Creature Commandos project.

Frank Grillo Drops Hints On Social Media

In an Instagram story, Grillo shared a screenshot of a Comicbook.com article discussing rumors of him and Ron Perlman joining a DC project, playfully teasing his involvement. In an earlier Instagram story, Grillo posted a message about change, accompanied by the DC Comics logo, further fueling speculation.

Grillo also commented on one of James Gunn’s Instagram posts about Creature Commandos, sparking more rumors with his use of flame emojis.

Possible Roles For Grillo And Perlman In Creature Commandos

Current conjecture suggests that Frank Grillo may portray Rick Flag Sr. in Creature Commandos, while Ron Perlman could take on the role of Frankenstein. Both actors seem well-suited for either role and would likely be open to performing in both voice and live-action capacities.

Potential Crossover With Swamp Thing

Although the timeline for the animated project’s transition to live-action is unclear, it is speculated that the crossover could occur in the Swamp Thing feature film. Both projects share thematic connections, making a crossover a logical choice.

As of now, release dates for both Creature Commandos and Swamp Thing have not been announced, leaving fans eagerly anticipating further news.
