Anya Chalotra Joins DC: James Gunn has officially confirmed another exciting addition to his growing DC cinematic universe, and it involves the talented Anya Chalotra from “The Witcher.”
Responding to inquiries about Anya Chalotra’s involvement in the upcoming animated series “Creature Commandos,” Gunn shared on Threads, “Yes. And there are other cool characters in the show played by other cool actors. But all of the series regulars were announced.”
Chalotra, known for her role as Yennefer in Netflix’s “The Witcher,” had previously been linked to the role of Circe when her online CV surfaced. Confirming her participation adds anticipation to the series.
For DC comics enthusiasts, Circe is a familiar name, particularly in Wonder Woman’s adventures. Often portrayed as an ancient sorceress, she frequently clashes with Diana and other members of the DC universe, including Superman.
The premise of “Creature Commandos” revolves around Viola Davis’ Amanda Waller forming a team of monsters and quirky creatures assigned to carry out black ops missions. Considering Gunn’s track record with “The Suicide Squad,” one can only wonder what misadventures lie ahead.
The main voice lineup for “Creature Commandos” was confirmed in 2023, featuring Frank Grillo as Rick Flag Sr, Maria Bakalova as Princess Ilana, David Harbour as Eric Frankenstein, Indira Varma as the Bride of Frankenstein, Alan Tudyk as Doctor Phosphorus, and Zoe Chao as the team scientist and mermaid Dr. Nina Mazursky. Sean Gunn will pull double duty as Weasel and G.I. Robot.
Scheduled to be the first DCU Chapter One series to air, “Creature Commandos” is expected to make its debut later this year.
A noteworthy detail is Gunn’s previous statement that actors appearing in animation would reprise their roles in live-action, and vice versa. This raises the exciting possibility of Anya Chalotra transitioning to live action in the DCU in the near future.
