James Gunn revealed a behind-the-scenes look at the Peacemaker opening dance number and how it was made. On Twitter, the director shared a photo of what it all looked like from his monitor on the day of recording. In the past, Gunn has talked about his vision for the wildly popular opening set to Wig Wam’s “Do You Wanna Taste It.” As the HBO Max show rolled out, a lot of viewers were not expecting the tone of the series to take on this Hair Metal vibe. Clearly, it resonated as Peacemaker became a fan favorite in short order. Adding to the fun is the fact that the dance number takes on a very different tone as the series progresses. People on social media just couldn’t get enough of the song and the performances. Now, with Peacemaker poised to have a second season, the only question remaining is how Gunn decides to top himself next time out.
