The Director Removed a Significant Story Arc for Clemson Murn from the New Season
The actor's no-nonsense soldier of fortune Clemson Murn was killed off in Peacemaker season 1, but showrunner James Gunn had previously hinted that he might recast the actor to play another character in the DC Universe. During a recent episode of the series' companion podcast, Gunn disclosed that Murn himself even make a comeback, referencing a plot with major consequences for the series going forward.
[Editor's Note: Spoilers ahead for the latest episode, "Like a Keith in the Night."]
When anti-hero Chris Smith (John Cena) and his friends visit Earth-2 in the new season, they meet alternate versions of several people from their own world. Rick Flagg, Jr. (Joel Kinnaman) clumsily stumbles overturning trash cans. Emilia Harcourt (Jennifer Holland) prefers books and skirts to fighting and trousers. And Vigilante (Freddie Stroma) fights to free the downtrodden as a member of the Sons of Liberty, rather than just murdering drug dealers and small-time lawbreakers.
The Murn in Chris Smith's original world was taken over by the alien butterfly Ik Nobe Llok, who had no desire to harm any humans. Even though Murn was the most terrible individual he could find, the butterfly still regretted the decision to take over his body, because he thought Murn was able to reform.
Gunn said he wanted to demonstrate that difference by creating a plot where Murn was likewise a member of the Sons of Liberty in the alternate world.
"He served as a champion. Whereas Murn on our planet was the worst guy in the world before he was possessed, Murn on their planet was this kind of incredible Harriet Tubman," Gunn stated. "Like a total action hero."
Gunn eventually cut that storyline from the second season, but he noted he's not completely abandoning on it.
"There's still the future," he said. "Earth-2 still exists. We left it intact. This still exists."
Even if the Peacemaker crew aren't in any hurry to go back to the world where the Axis powers triumphed in World War II, Gunn's promise that it's remaining means they might face consequences for how they destroyed its incarnation of the Smith family. Harcourt tried to kill the revenge-seeking and badly hurt Keith Smith (David Denman) before returning to her world, but had to flee through the portal when the police arrived. Auggie referenced some kind of big plan involving the dimensional portal before he was killed, and Keith might attempt to complete whatever that was. He'd also assuredly try to avenge his father and brother while he's at it.
Peacemaker season 2 is available on the streaming platform.
