Peacemaker Season 2 Finale Playlist: Dee Snider, Alice Cooper & More

The playlist for HBO Max's Peacemaker Season 2 finale (S02E08: "Full Nelson") includes tracks from Dee Snider, Alice Cooper, Nelson, and more.

Seeing himself as some kind of combination of cursed and an "angel of death," no matter which dimension he calls home, Chris (Cena) has handed himself (and the dimensional device) over to Rick Flag Sr. (Frank Grillo) and A.R.G.U.S. – while making sure that everyone else was cleared of charges. Of course, that means the rest of the 11th Street Kids will need to find a way to not only rescue him but also save him. Meanwhile, Flag's deal with Lex Luthor (Nicholas Hoult) will lead to some interdimensional spelunking into the unknown. That's a whole lot going on heading into the Season 2 finale of DC Studios and writer/director James Gunn's John Cena-starring Peacemaker. That explains why S02E08: "Full Nelson" is being super-sized – and why the episode's soundtrack is loaded with even more great music.

The streaming series official Spotify playlist now includes the following tracks for the season finale: "Someone Special" from Hardcore Superstar, "Oh Lord" from Foxy Shazam, "Fucking My Heart in the Ass" from Steel Panther, "We're Not Gonna Take It (2016 Acoustic)" from Dee Snider, "Only My Heart Talkin'" from Alice Cooper, "To Get Back To You" from Nelson, and "Reckoning" from The Cruel Intentions. Here's a look at the key art announcement Gunn posted earlier today:

Over the course of the past two Peacemaker Season 2 watch parties on Threads, Gunn has had some interesting teases to drop about what's ahead- and about how we have no idea what's coming. Here's a look:

Gunn's Big Plug for S02E08: "Full Nelson" – "Next week: "When has anything we've ever done actually been for the good of the people?" I can't wait for you to see it. I promise it is nothing like anything anyone expects or has guessed!"

Some of Gunn's Favorite Dialogue to Write Hits This Week – "Some of Adebayo's [Danielle Brooks] stuff next episode probably."

Will "Peacemaker" Season 2 Finale Tease The DCU's Future? "More than tease!"

Will "Peacemaker" Season 2 Finale Have a Lot of Cameos? "It's not about the cameos. It's about the story and the twists and the emotion and fun. Cameos are only fun if they're a part of the story."

Just When You Thought You Knew Your Favorite Characters…: "If you guys think you have these characters all figured out and put into a nice little hole, next week's episode might show you that's not the case."

Expect a Set Even Better Than the QUC: "The QUC was really great. But the best set is in Episode 8!!"

Will We Be Seeing More of the QUC in the DCU's Future: "Welll you might be in luck!!"

The series follows Christopher "Chris" Smith, aka Peacemaker, the vigilante superhero, as he struggles to reconcile his past with his newfound sense of purpose while continuing to kick righteous evildoer butt in his misguided quest for peace at any cost. During the second season, Peacemaker discovers an alternate world where life is everything he wishes it could be. But this discovery also forces him to face his traumatic past and take the future into his own hands.

Gunn penned the eight-episode season and directed three of the season's episodes. Gunn, Peter Safran, and Matt Miller serve as executive producers, with Cena as co-executive producer. In addition, Lars Winther, John H. Starke, and John Rickard serve as producers.
