Peacemaker Season 2 Hype Sizzle Reel: Gunn & Cast Offer BTS Preview

Check out the Season 2 "Hype Sizzle Reel" that was released for DC Studios and writer/director James Gunn's John Cena-starring Peacemaker.


With the second season of DC Studios Co-CEO and writer/director James Gunn's John Cena-starring Peacemaker set to start hitting Max screens on Thursday, August 21st, Gunn has been dropping some excellent intel over the past few weeks. We know that San Diego Comic-Con 2025 will include the reveal of the new opening credits, and that there's "the possibility of one really, really, really big cameo" at the end of the season. But what did Gunn and Cena have to share this weekend during CCXP Mexico 2025? How about a "hype sizzle reel" with Gunn and the cast offering us some great looks from behind the scenes of filming (including some Peacemaker-on-Peacemaker action near the end).

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. Max's Peacemaker was produced by The Safran Company and Troll Court Entertainment in association with Warner Bros Television and DC Studios.
