The Max platform (formerly HBO Max) released a long trailer for its upcoming series, including Peacemakerstill supervised by James Gunn for DC and still with John Cena.
It’s now a habit: rather than just promoting their programs individually, the big SVOD platforms are betting a lot on big trailers compiling new images of everything they will have to offer in the future. A way of creating an event by drowning the viewer in content and of course better sticking to their economic model, based as much on premium products as on a supplied catalog. The goal? Create a feeling of abundance and therefore encourage subscription.
Available in France recently, Max is no exception. It must be said that the service, known for bringing together HBO and Warner productions, includes some of the most commented series on the pop-culture planet, most of which are renewed or even rebooted. This November 11, he revealed his big summary of the seasons to come, including that of Peacemakerdedicated to the DC superhero and supervised by James Gunn.
Peacemaker: aperitif season
The list of series listed in these 2 minutes is long: Dune Prophecy, The Sex Lives of College Girls, Bookie, Somebody Somewhere, Get Millie Black, Creature Commandos (also under the direction of Gunn), The White Lotus, The Righteous Gem Stones, And Just like that (the continuation of Sex and the City), Hacks, Duster, The Rehearsal, The Pitt, Task, The Gilded Age, The Chair Company, Untitled Rachel Sennot Project, It : Welcome to Derry (the prequel to That), A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms (the spin-off of Game of Thrones), The Last of Usas well as several documentaries will be broadcast on Max in 2025.
It is from 1 minute 17 that we can see some images from season 2 of Peacemaker. We can see John Cena in his beautiful red suit of course, but also Vigilante, the psychopathic vigilante played by Freddie Stroma, as well as Emilia Harcourt, played by Jennifer Holland. Above all, a plan focuses on the most anticipated newcomer: Frank Grillo, regular in action B series who will be Rick Flag Sr. here and in Creature Commandos.
A few weeks ago, an image shared by James Gunn also announced the arrival of a mysterious hero from the DC team. So there is no question for the most idiotic superhero of the moment to rest on his laurels (season 1 had very good press).
No release date has yet been officially set, but this trailer therefore confirms the arrival of the season in 2025a priori after the release of Superman (July 9, 2025) according to the director, now in charge of the new extended universe adapted from DC Comics.
