One of the best, most everlasting parts of that first season of Peacemaker was its opening credits as the antihero and friends (and his dad) danced to “Do You Wanna Taste It?” by Wig Wam. With season two less than a month out, everyone’s been wondering what its song would be, and the answer is…”Oh Lord” by Foxy Shazam.
During Saturday night’s Peacefest at San Diego Comic-Con, James Gunn took to the stage to break the news, calling it a song “from my favorite band in the world that is objectively the greatest rock ‘n’ roll band in the world.” And sure enough, the rock band came on to perform their 2010 track.
While neither the concert nor panel featured any glimpses at the new Peacemaker intro, Gunn said during the panel that Frank Grillo was a “terrible dancer, but a trooper.” The actor, reprising his role as Rick Flag Sr. from Creature Commandos and Superman, said he was initially against it since he’s “a serious actor. [But] little by little, I became the best dancer out of everyone.” The others…didn’t really see it that way, but he admitted to having fun “watching Tim Meadows suffer.”
The way Meadows tells it, he was the worst dancer out of all of them. “Everybody expected me to be good, and I don’t want to say why they expected me to be good, but I was horrible.” Conversely, returning actors Jennifer Holland and Freddie Stroma aced the dance, according to Gunn. He then said Peacemaker’s pal Eagly will dance during the intro, and “has a little pose this time.”
If that sounds like your cup of tea, Peacemaker season two hits HBO Max on August 21.
