Peacemaker season 2 is in a unique position within the newly minted DCU. Kicked off with James Gunn’s Superman, the second season of Chris Smith’s (John Cena) story is a project that started in the former DCEU and has carried over.
At the New York premiere for the series, I was lucky enough to speak with James Gunn about the DCU as a whole, but not intentionally. One of the funnier aspects of Peacemaker to me is that the character was never that important within the DC Comics canon. He was a side character and one that people probably didn’t care that strongly about. But now, through Gunn’s The Suicide Squad and the subsequent show, he is a household name.
