Peacemaker trailer teases bloody, wacky thrills
John Cena returns as Peacemaker in the first trailer for HBO Max's upcoming DC spin-off.
John Cena's Peacemaker may have taken a bullet from Bloodsport in The Suicide Squad but he's back to his murderous ways in the first trailer for upcoming HBO Max series Peacemaker.
Those who stayed to watch the James Gunn film's post-credits scene will know that Peacemaker survived the shot and was needed by his Task Force X handlers for another mission – and judging by the trailer, it looks as though his spin-off series will pick up from where the film left off.
Shared during the DC Fan Dome event, the trailer sees Peacemaker team up with John Economos (Steve Agee), NSA agent Emilia Harcourt (Jennifer Holland), Vigilante (Freddie Stroma), Clemson Murn (Chukwudi Iwuji) and "new recruit" Leota Adebayo (Danielle Brooks) to kill "bad people" and stay out of prison.
From targeting corrupt senators and dancing around in his tighty whiteys, to reuniting with his father (Robert Patrick) and hugging eagles, DC fans are in for a lot of fun Peacemaker content in the James Gunn-created series judging by its first-look footage.
