While Peacemaker Season 2 recently hit the 2025 TV schedule, it was a long time coming. The first season of the DC series was available with an HBO Max subscription all the way back in 2022. It took, as John Cena himself recently put it, “1000 days” to get new episodes to fans. Part of this had to do with the changing of the guard over at DC, and the former WWE superstar just shared what Gunn had told him when all of this went down.
Per Cena, Gunn said “being patient” was going to be the key after the landmark decision was made to put the popular director at the head of the DCU. That two-word phrase really stuck with Cena, because it came into play as time passed after the critically acclaimed first season hit the schedule. When asked by Axel Talks Film what he and Gunn discussed, Cena got candid about how he does "trust" Gunn.
