Following the recent confirmation of the second season renewal of Peacemaker, rumors about it have circulated online which includes the potential appearance of DC villain Bane.
However, series creator James Gunn took to Twitter to address this casting rumor by immediately denying that Bane would be one of the second installment’s antagonists. He also wrote that he’s still working on the next season’s storyline, which is why no one knows about the project but him.
Don’t you know by now to make really sure of this stuff before posting? This is bullshit. No one knows what’s coming but me, & even I don’t fully know. https://t.co/WTSXCsWGXI
