The clip can be watched via the player above or the embed below.
The season finale – titled "A Very Funny Monster” and written and executive produced by DC Studios co-CEO/co-chairman James Gunn and directed by Matt Peters – presents Nina Mazursky’s (voiced by Zoe Chao) origin story while also finding Princess Ilana (Maria Bakalova) attempting to escape death at the hands of the Creature Commandos once and for all.
In addition to Chao’s Nina, our exclusive clip from the season finale also features Alan Tudyk’s Dr. Phosphorus, Indira Varma’s The Bride, and Sean Gunn’s Weasel.
The series boasts a stellar voice ensemble that includes Steve Agee as Economos, Anya Chalotra as Circe, Frank Grillo as Rick Flag Sr., David Harbour as Eric Frankenstein, and Viola Davis as Amanda Waller.
Creature Commandos was recently renewed for Season 2. In his spoiler-free Creature Commandos Season 1 review, IGN’s Tyler Roberston said the show “gracefully fulfills its duties as the bridge between the old DCEU and the new DCU, while also telling a rock solid story all its own. James Gunn’s classic recipe of lovable weirdos, great music, and lots of jokes and violence is on full display, but in a new, fresh way that’s presented well in animation.”
