Peacemaker Season 2 Officially Confirmed By James Gunn
James Gunn confirms HBO Max has renewed Peacemaker for season 2 a day ahead of the season 1 finale airing on the streaming platform. The series serves as a spinoff from Gunn's DC Extended Universe debut The Suicide Squad and revolves around John Cena's titular character of the same name. Alongside Cena, Peacemaker sees the returns of film stars Jennifer Holland, Steve Agee and Viola Davis as well as introducing Danielle Brooks, Robert Patrick, Freddie Stroma, Chukwudi Iwuji, Lochlyn Munro and Annie Chang to the DCEU.
Peacemaker picks up five months after the events of The Suicide Squad as Christopher Smith is fully recovered from his failed mission and re-enlisted by Amanda Waller to join Project Butterfly. The black ops squad, headed by shady mercenary Clemson Murn and including fresh blood Leota Adebayo and A.R.G.U.S. agents John Economos and Emilia Harcourt, are tasked with tracking down and killing extraterrestrial parasitic beings before they can complete their plans to conquer the Earth. Peacemaker has been a critical hit since premiering on HBO Max in January and thanks to its strong viewership, it looks to only just be getting started.
