DC fans also got a better look at The Suicide Squad spin-off, Peacemaker, which sees John Cena reprise his star-spangled titular role, at the online showcase.
Peacemaker talks about “butt babies” in latest Peacemaker teaser
James Gunn’s The Suicide Squad might not have been a big box office success, but fans and critics alike loved it a lot more than the previous one. Perhaps the best thing about The Suicide Squad is that it has an off-shoot TV series coming up. John Cena’s Peacemaker is coming to HBO Max and Warner Bros. dropped the series’ first-ever teaser trailer at DC FanDome 2021, which does a great job at describing the character down to a T. The first official teaser for Peacemaker goes beyond the HBO Max sizzle reel. It also gives audiences a look at Peacemaker’s crew, which, to be honest, isn’t a far cry from Task Force X. We even see Peacemaker telling us what he thinks about butt babies in the teaser. It’s not accurate, by any means. However, it encapsulates what makes John Cena’s take on the lovable but violent patriot so endearing to fans. To top it all off, HBO Max dropped both a teaser and a premiere date of Peacemaker at DC FanDome 2021. After slogging filming through the COVID-19 pandemic, Peacemaker is finally set to arrive on HBO Max on January 13, which is earlier than the previous leak. Gunn, who directed and wrote The Suicide Squad, also served as the writer for the entire first season of Peacemaker while also directing a huge portion of it.
