He's back, and he's still kind of the worst (in the best way possible). Season 2 of Peacemaker is right around the corner, and HBO Max just released a brand new trailer. First released during San Diego Comic-Con 2025, the trailer gives fans a chaotic first look at where things are heading. John Cena's Christopher Smith is still a walking disaster who hasn't gotten the hero schtick settled. This time around, he's dealing with issues beyond his wildest imagination.
The trailer kicks off with Peacemaker at rock bottom, until he finds a universe where his life doesn't suck. In true Peacemaker fashion, he tries to mess with this dimension, which ultimately goes wrong. The footage teases familiar faces such as Leota Adebayo (Danielle Brooks), Vigilante (Freddie Stroma), Emilia Harcourt (Jennifer Holland), and John Economos (Steve Agee) back on screen. Peacemaker better watch his back. New threats like Rick Flag Sr. (Frank Grillo), fresh out of what happened in The Suicide Squad, are out for blood.
At SDCC, Collider's Steven Weintraub sat down with Agee to talk all things Peacemaker, also covering everything from collecting King Shark merch, James Gunn's packed work schedule, and Agee's time as a writer for Jimmy Kimmel.
