James Gunn Shares New Peacemaker Set Images To Celebrate Show's UK Release

screenrant.com:

Director James Gunn recently shared new Peacemaker set images to celebrate the show's release in the UK. Serving as a spinoff of Gunn's popular DCEU entry The Suicide Squad, the HBO series follows Christopher Smith, aka Peacemaker (John Cena), as he and the 11th Street Kids attempt to stop an alien invasion by the Butterflies. The series proved very popular on HBO and, and a Peacemaker season 2 has already been confirmed, with Gunn set to write and direct all episodes.

Although Peacemaker began streaming on HBO on January 13, 2022, the show was not released worldwide at the same time. Earlier this month, Gunn took to Twitter to announce that Peacemaker will finally air in the UK after previously being unavailable. The entirety of the Peacemaker series landed on the Sky Max channel as well as the Sky's streaming service, Now TV, on March 22.

Gunn recently shared new Peacemaker behind-the-scenes set images to celebrate the HBO series' release in the UK. In one image, John Cena as the titular hero wields his trademark oversized pistol as he stares wide-eyed into the camera. In front of Cena lies a dead man with the hero's dove-adorned shield impaled in the man's head. The second image shows both Peacemaker and Vigilante (Freddie Stroma) in full costume with bows in hand as they pose for the camera. Check out the images below.
