Beauty School : James Gunn Celebrates Peacemaker Becoming the DCEU’s Highest-Rated Project

James Gunn’s Peacemaker has been an absolute smash hit for both HBO and the larger DC Extended Universe. In a recent message on social media, Gunn celebrated the fact that the series had surpassed every DC property as the highest-reviewed DCEU project.

Shortly after its debut earlier this month, Peacemaker became the highest-reviewed DCEU project, ranking higher in ratings than every other movie, including Gunn’s latest film Suicide Squad. Taking to Twitter, Gunn thanked everyone involved in the series and said that he was “moved” by how people are reacting to the series.

This is great. Even more, I'm moved by how people all around the world are coming to love Chris, Leota, Adrian, Emilia, & John. On behalf of the whole cast & crew: Thank you! Please join our #PeacemakerParty tonight as we live-tweet episode 4 at 6 pm PST! #Peacemaker @hbomax https://t.co/Py9MU6fUKj
