\n\tFrank Grillo<\/a> took to social media to express all of his gratitude to former DC Studios<\/a> co-heads James Gunn<\/a> and Peter Safran<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\n\tFollowing the merger of Warner Bros. and Paramount, Skydance parted ways with Gunn and Safran, who were still in the initial stages of rebuilding the DC Universe. Amid the executive shakeup<\/a>, Grillo posted a video with a message to the departing duo.<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cI feel like now that the dust has settled a bit, and every jerk off with an Instagram handle has an opinion \u2014 I just wanted to publicly thank two of the finest men that I\u2019ve met in this business, in Peter Safran and James Gunn,\u201d Grillo said on Instagram. \u201cTwo of the most loyal guys. Two of the most passionate and loving and creative human beings that I\u2019ve had the pleasure and the honor of getting to work with just amazing, amazing experience with both of them.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tGrillo joined the DCU as Rick Flag Sr. in the animated series Creature Commandos. The actor would reprise his role, now in live-action, in 2025\u2019s Superman<\/a> and the TV series Peacemaker. He is set to play the role once again in 2027\u2019s Man of Tomorrow<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\n\tIn his note to Gunn and Safran he said it has \u201cbeen extraordinary\u201d working with them, adding, \u201cIt\u2019s been a gift, and these two gentlemen are an example of what class and what men are really capable of in Hollywood.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cAnd whether you like their movies or not is irrelevant to me, but on a personal level, there just aren\u2019t two better human beings that I\u2019ve come across, and I consider both of them dear, dear friends,\u201d he continued. \u201cI would even pick Peter up at the airport. Maybe not James, but Peter, definitely, I pick him up at the airport. So, anyway, I want to thank you boys, and I look forward to what we\u2019re going to do next.\u201d<\/p>\n
