The hype around Peacemaker Season 2 continues to grow as James Gunn, DC Studios' chief, recently shared a cryptic photo from the set. After teasing us earlier with a glimpse of John Cena's iconic helmet, Gunn followed up with another intriguing shot – this time showing a shadowy figure who seems to be Native American. The details remain unclear, but speculation is already running wild among fans.
The new season of Peacemaker has been in production since April 2023, filming in Atlanta's Trilith Studios, and is expected to wrap soon. Gunn has confirmed that Season 2 will exist within the same universe as his upcoming Superman: Legacy film, slated for a July 11, 2025 release. This shift from the DCEU to the new DCU leaves fans wondering how the series will evolve, particularly after the wild ride of the first season.
Returning to the cast are fan favorites John Cena as Peacemaker, Danielle Brooks as Adebayo, Freddie Stroma as Vigilante, Jennifer Holland as Harcourt, Steve Agee as Economos, and Robert Patrick as Peacemaker's father, Auggie. Joining the lineup this season are Frank Grillo, playing Rick Flagg Sr., Sol Rodríguez as Sasha Bordeaux, and David Denman in a mysterious role. With a mix of old faces and new talent, the stakes for Season 2 feel even higher.
On top of this, Gunn also confirmed that work on the Wonder Woman prequel series, Paradise Lost, is still ongoing, keeping fans excited for the broader direction of the DCU.
With such a strong ensemble cast, sharp writing, and Gunn's knack for blending humor with action, Peacemaker Season 2 promises to deliver another unforgettable experience. But with the transition to a new cinematic universe in play, how will the show reconcile its place in this larger puzzle?
What are your predictions for the upcoming season?
