John Cena is back with his big gun in the first trailer for Peacemaker

I can speak for everyone at Explosion Network and say we loved James Gunn’s The Suicide Squad, and even though John Cena’s Peacemaker turns out to be a two-faced SOB in the film, we’re all still excited to watch the upcoming HBO Max series. 

The upcoming HBO Max series picks up right where the after-credits scene from The Suicide Squad left off with Peacemaker recovering in hospital after being left for dead. The show introduces Vigilante as another ridiculous would-be-hero and a new team of characters that’ll be part of Peacemakers new team. 

James Gunn revealed that the show would be both a sequel and a prequel. Peacemaker will delve into the past of Peacemaker and what happens with the character following The Suicide Squad. 

Check out the first trailer for Peacemaker released as part of DC FanDome 2021 earlier this morning. Let me know what you think and if you’re excited to watch the series when it debuts on January 16th, 2022, on HBO Max (presumably on Binge in Australia).
