Earlier, director James Gunn revealed that the last episode took the longest time to shoot, taking 21 days to complete, and carefully prepared a big show for DC fans. Near the final battle, supporting actress Adebayo called Amanda Waller, the behind-the-scenes commander of the Suicide Squad, for help, asking her to send the Justice League to help them deal with the aliens...

However, the battle was over, and the Peacemaker complained that they were late.

Justice League is late

What caught the audience's attention when Justice League was late was that Jason Momoa, who played Aquaman in DECU, and Ezra Miller, who played The Flash, made cameo appearances in these two roles. Their scenes were shot separately, and Ezra Miller's scenes were even shot with the help of Marvel staff. It turned out that Gunn was already preparing for Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 at Marvel, and Ezra Miller only had time at that time.

Zhao Xina recently accepted an interview with Fandom website and said: "I will always be grateful to (Momoa and Miller) because they helped us a lot, and there were jokes in the lines. Whether it was their intention or not, they really helped our show and made more people pay attention to the new characters in the DC universe (Peacemaker and others)."

The series ended without a close-up of Superman and Wonder Woman, because they were not played by Henry Cavill and Gal Gadot, but by two unknown actors, who posted makeup photos on their social media, both wearing the costumes that Gadot and Henry wore. In addition, the crew also shot a long shot of Cyborg, but it was deleted in the end.
