John Cena Explains Real-Life Military Inspirations for Peacemaker in TSS
For his first appearance as Peacemaker in The Suicide Squad, John Cena used real-life military ifigures as inspirations for his anti-hero. The soft sequel/reboot of the DCEU's 2016 Suicide Squad saw James Gunn introduce a brand new version of Amanda Waller's Task Force X, which, alongside the returning Harley Quinn, included predominantly new and obscure characters like Sylvester Idris Elba's Bloodsport, and Cena's Peacemaker. Gunn's R-rated take on the eponymous team earned acclaim from both audiences and critics and became DC's most successful film on HBO Max to date, according to the director. The film not only introduced Cena's Peacemaker to audiences, but set the wheels in motion for the first DCEU TV show, Peacemaker, as the series picks up following the events of the film.
