A new trailer for Peacemaker Season 2 has been released.
The first season of Peacemaker premiered on HBO Max in January 2022. Created by James Gunn, the show serves as a spin-off to 2021’s The Suicide Squad and sees John Cena reprise his role as Chris Smith.
The second season of Peacemaker premieres next month. While the first season took place in the DCEU, which ended with 2023’s Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom, Peacemaker Season 2 will now be part of Gunn and Peter Safran’s DCU. Gunn has reassured fans many times that the new season will address the continuity change.
