Peacemaker is a TV series that continues the story of the character Christopher Smith, aka Peacemaker, from the film The Suicide Squad (2021). Created by James Gunn, the show debuted in 2022 on HBO Max and stars John Cena as Peacemaker. The series picks up after the events of the movie, where Peacemaker is recovering from his injuries and is recruited by a covert government team for a new mission, Project Butterfly.

Peacemaker is a complex character, known for his extreme belief in achieving peace at any cost—even if it means killing people to do so. The show dives deep into his personality, exploring his troubled upbringing, strained relationship with his father, and inner conflict about his violent methods. While Peacemaker was portrayed as a villain in The Suicide Squad, the series focuses more on his redemption arc, blending action, dark humor, and heartfelt moments.

The series is filled with James Gunn's signature style, mixing over-the-top violence with quirky humor and unexpected emotional depth. The supporting cast, including characters like Vigilante, Harcourt, and Economos, adds to the dynamic, bringing in a mix of humor and tension. The show also touches on themes of family, loyalty, and the cost of following one's beliefs, while not shying away from its irreverent, offbeat tone.

John Cena’s performance as Peacemaker is one of the highlights of the show. He brings a mix of comedy and vulnerability to the role, showing that beneath Peacemaker's tough exterior is a man dealing with guilt and trauma. The series was well-received for its bold storytelling and character development, and it quickly became a fan favorite, blending superhero action with deeper emotional moments.

The thumbnail 😂.. actually that's James Gunn's real wife.

I think that was John Cena’s funniest and best performance he ever made and it was both hilarious and bing worthy

[butterflywing]

Script itself is easy to write
It has it's own methods to write them

But James's personality makes it really good

I paused this video on a very bad shot while talking to my Mom.

Best thing in the DCU by far. Shocking because he was so unlikeable in the Suicide Squad 2

[SilverScarletSpider]

we need season 2 of peacemaker. please make more videos on the show so fans can learn the lore

[TimothoNuva]

Between GotG and Peacemaker, James Gunn seems to have a knack for bringing lesser known characters into the spotlight. Imagine if Marvel Studios had asked him to make a comic-accurate Big Hero 6 movie.

I just finished it and I fukin love it

[aiwditbh]

[ronne]

This show was deep as f***like bro had to kill his brother that's some real deep stuff people that relate we know how he was feeling when he was rocking out to House of pain😢😢😢😮‍💨😮‍💨😮‍💨

[craigs]

Peacemaker is far better than suicide squad

[JUSSINBUSSIN]

This show made me love John Cena. I always saw him as the campy WWE guy, but boy this dude can ACT. Peacemaker is his best work yet.

[legopants]

peacemaker was alright creature commandos was alright too

[YTEdy]

This was such an unlikely series. Peacemaker was OK in Gunn's suicide squad, but he wasn't very likable and had the least personality. That Gunn took one of the least likable characters and made a great series based on him is hilarious in and of itself.

Well is peacemaker retconned after the reboot ?

[samfilmkid]

I might be in the minority here, and I liked the show a lot, but I didn’t like Vigilante. He just wasn’t funny to me at all. He slowed scenes down, which I get was like his schtick, but it felt more awkward and forced than a lot of the other characters.

[brettparsons]

I see i am the only one who didnt really care for Peacemaker... Ill see myself out, sorry

[stuntman]

Let's be real, this series not really that good
