Frank Grillo’s love of sharing information often got him into trouble with Marvel. He admitted to accidentally revealing plot details on multiple occasions, leading to stern warnings from the studio. “You know, unfortunately, there’s nothing I can really say that wouldn’t get me in trouble. So I kind of have to step back and go, ‘I take the fifth,‘” Grillo stated.

“I am so bad at this. Like, Marvel almost fired me 36 f—ing times because I don’t know. I never want to lie. And so, I do that a little too much. But I’ve been warned,” he added. Despite his best efforts to keep secrets, Grillo’s enthusiasm for discussing his work often got the better of him.

The actor has seemingly learned his lesson. He is now more cautious about what he says in interviews and on social media. His upcoming roles in ‘Creature Commandos’ and ‘Peacemaker’ Season 2 promise to be exciting additions to the DC Universe. Moreover, the actor did not let any insider information get out about these roles. 

Fans can look forward to seeing him in these new projects. Hopefully, he will be able to keep his lips sealed this time. Additionally, while he may still be tempted to share details about his upcoming projects, he is aware of the “risks.”

I love James Gunn and Peter Safran and they’ve given me an amazing opportunity. But at this point, I’m happy about everything I’ve done and I’m certainly willing to,” he added.  Moreover, as the DC Universe continues to evolve, fans can expect to see more of Frank Grillo in his new role.
