HBO Max Orders ‘The Suicide Squad’ TV Spinoff ‘Peacemaker’
(https://i.imgur.com/Pug3DFf.jpg)
HBO Max has called in the Peacemaker – ordering a TV spin-off of James Gunn’s upcoming Suicide Squad movie starring John Cena.
The streamer has handed Peacemaker an eight-episode straight-to-series order for its first season with The Suicide Squad director writing all episodes and directing a number of them.
The show will explore the origins of the character that Cena plays in the 2021 movie. The character, which was created by Joe Gill and Pat Boyette and first appeared in the Fightin’ 5 series originally owned by Charlton Comics, is a man who believes in peace at any cost — no matter how many people he has to kill to get it.
Peacemaker is scheduled to begin production in early 2021, prior to Gunn beginning work on the next Guardians of the Galaxy film.

James Gunn Announces the Start of Filming on HBO Max’s Peacemaker
Later this year, James Gunn will breathe new life into The Suicide Squad, which premieres on August 6. The new film is primed to introduce a handful of breakout characters, including John Cena’s Peacemaker, who’s also headlining his own spinoff series on HBO Max. Now, Gunn has taken to social media to announce that Peacemaker has begun production.
Gunn shared the news in an Instagram post that shows him sporting a Peacemaker t-shirt along with his new snow-white dye job. According to his caption, he wrote Peacemaker’s entire eight-episode first season in just eight weeks after turning in his latest draft of the script for Marvel’s Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3.
The Peacemaker series was originally announced last fall. Gunn has also spent the last few months assembling a supporting cast to star opposite Cena’s title character. Steve Agee and Jennifer Holland will reprise their roles from The Suicide Squad as John Economos and Emilia Harcourt. Additionally, the show will feature appearances by Danielle Brooks, Robert Patrick, Chris Conrad, Lochlyn Munro, Chukwudi Iwuji, Annie Chang, and Christoper Heyerdahl. Peacemaker is part of Warner Bros.’ ongoing plan to release HBO Max series that will tie into their upcoming slate of DC films.
HBO Max has yet to announce a release date for Peacemaker.

‘Peacemaker’: Freddie Stroma To Replace Chris Conrad In HBO Max’s ‘Suicide Squad’ Spinoff
Peacemaker is getting a new Vigilante.
Freddie Stroma, who starred as Prince Friedrich in Netflix’s Bridgerton, has replaced Chris Conrad in HBO Max’s spinoff of James Gunn’s Suicide Squad movie starring John Cena.
Stroma, who also stars in Netflix’s The Crew, will play Vigilante, otherwise known as Adrian Chase, a hand-to-hand combatant, a brilliant marksman and a master of the lariat. He was a New York City DA who sought justice in his own way as his alter ego after his wife and kids were killed by mobsters. Vigilante also has the ability to heal quickly and regenerate his body from injuries as serious as stabbings or gunshot wounds.
Conrad had originally been cast to play the character but is leaving amicably due to creative differences.
Peacemaker scored a straight-to-series eight episode order last year with The Suicide Squad director writing all episodes and directing a number of them. The show will explore the origins of the character that Cena plays in the 2021 movie.

Peacemaker first look reveals John Cena's new squad
(https://sportshub.cbsistatic.com/i/2021/09/13/374b7c0b-d173-4faf-9926-dce10996d8a5/peacemaker-hbo-max-series-new-cast-team-photo.jpg)
The eight-episode HBO Max series, which premieres in January, centers on "black ops combating something catastrophic that's facing the planet," (James) Gunn says, leading Peacemaker, Harcourt (Jennifer Holland), and Economos (Steve Agee, both from The Suicide Squad) to team up with three new characters. Chukwudi Iwuji is group leader Murn (a mercenary under Amanda Waller), while Freddie Stroma plays popular comics character Vigilante. "You may not have guessed it," quips Gunn, "but his character is a vigilante!" Danielle Brooks plays sixth team member Adebayo. "She isn't always treated the best by the people around her, but despite her differences with Peacemaker, they form a bond," he explains.

Hilarious! Raunchy and silly and sometimes even touching. I was puzzled as to why he was given the spin off, but it works. I love Vigilante’s character, like a funny unhinged version of deadpool.

James Gunn Says ‘Peacemaker’ Has “Really Good Chance” For Season 2, Eyeing Second ‘Suicide Squad’ Spinoff Series For HBO Max
James Gunn disclosed to Deadline that “(T)here’s a really good chance" of a second season of Peacemaker, which recently dropped episode 5.
“We’re the biggest show in the world right now,” Gunn continued, speaking from the set of Guardians of the Galaxy 3 in Atlanta.
According to sources, Gunn has also approached HBO Max with the idea for another series built around one of the characters in Suicide Squad. The project is in the embryonic stages with nothing written or greenlit but HBO Max is said to be high on it based on Gunn’s enthusiasm for the idea.

Ang mahal malamng nitong TV series na to. The OST along ang mahal ng mga music license nyan. I like it!!!

love the Foster the People’s “Pumped Up Kicks" in metal rock version.

I also like the opening dance number 😁😁😁.
-
Ganda ng episode 5.. malapit na mangyari ang inaabangan kong scene ni peacemaker at harcourt 🤣
As expected. Xray helmet ang magiging key for Murn
-
Natawa ako sa mga suggestions ni Peacemaker na pwede i-frame up instead of his father. Hanggang sa end credits, may extended version

When you observe it, parang madali lang. Pero mahirap na siguro if you try it. ;D
-
Ang mahirap doon ay kung paano siya i-perform with straight faces.
-
I think the dance looks simple coz of John Cena's hard & stiff body ;D
-
That music kse is infectious. Mapapa indak ka din tuloy 😂.

So far so good.episode 6 na and still tawang tawa parin kami..

Ep 7 meron isang malaking plot hole. 😔🤦

Satisfying ending to an excellent, truly funny and action-packed series. Wonderful cast and have to say that John Cena fits the Peacemaker role perfectly despite him not being the first choice to play the character (it was supposed to be Dave Bautista, but he turned it down). Surprising bit with the last minute cameos....hehe.
-
^ The cameos were unexpected. :) For a while there, I also thought James Gunn was going to kill off the Vigilante and Harcourt. The Judomaster lives too :)
Looking forward to Season 2.
-
Wow! Akala ko talaga silhouettes lang sila. Vigilante ang kulit lang with his asperger’s . But i have to admit, in the real world, you’d have to be a bit crazy to walk around in a costume like that.
-
nice series, the humor was topnotch! I could even rate this up above the Marvel TV shows. Action & blood spats were realistic & everyone showed up ;D
-
Done with the series too. One of the best things to ever happen in the DCEU. I love the humor too. Very talk-y and sarcastic.
-
Wow.. di ko inexpect yun!!!!
-
James Gunn spoke about the surprise cameos in the Peacemaker season finale in this article from Variety (https://variety.com/2022/tv/news/peacemaker-season-1-finale-justice-league-james-gunn-1235184463/). Interesting response as to why Batman and Cyborg were not included in the cameos.

James Gunn Says ‘Peacemaker’ Season 2 Is ‘Safe’ at HBO Max After ‘Batgirl’ Axed: ‘Guys, Calm Down’
James Gunn is assuring DC fans that “Peacemaker” Season 2 is in fine shape at HBO Max, despite the recent news that Warner Bros. has killed “Batgirl” from being released either on the streamer or in theaters. “Peacemaker,” a spinoff of Gunn’s movie “The Suicide Squad,” starring John Cena in the title role, was a big hit for HBO Max when it debuted at the start of 2022. A second season was officially announced in February.
“Is ‘Peacemaker’ Season 2 safe?” asked one fan on Twitter following the news of “Batgirl’s” demise. Gunn answered, “Yes, guys, calm down.” The director later posted a behind-the-scenes photo from the “Peacemaker” Season 2 set. The image shows actor Jennifer Holland, who plays Emilia Harcourt on the show, eating a salad with movie prop blood all over her face. The takeaway is that “Peacemaker” Season 2 remains in production and all is going according to plan.
Viewers have been left to question the future of HBO Max as rumors continue to circulate about the streamer’s eventual merger with Discovery+. The recent decision to axe “Batgirl” and quietly remove other Warner Bros. films off the streamer have led many to wonder if HBO Max is in turmoil. There’s also been rumors that HBO Max will be cutting back on scripted programming. As far as Gunn is concerned, “Peacemaker” is “safe” and moving ahead with Season 2.

‘Peacemaker’ Season 2 Begins Production as James Gunn Shares Helmet Pic
More than two years after the end of its first season, “Peacemaker” is finally rolling on a new batch of episodes.
DC Studios co-chairman and co-CEO James Gunn took to Instagram on Saturday to reveal a selfie reflected in Peacemaker’s signature headgear. Gunn simply titled the picture “Day 1 S2. 🧜♂️.” The mermaid emoji is a nod to the show’s fans, as in the first season Vigilante (Freddie Stroma) revealed it was his favorite emoji, saying it means “happy, sad and everything in between.”
