DC Studios co-CEO James Gunn has revealed the canon status of Peacemaker’s first season, while Season 2 has received a production window.
On Threads, Gunn confirmed that the DC series‘ first season is not canon to the new DC Universe, though Season 2 will be. The filmmaker also revealed that Superman will be filmed simultaneously with Peacemaker, meaning Gunn will only direct some episodes of the season despite writing all of them. The events of Superman will also apparently affect Peacemaker Season 2, as it is taking place after the movie.
Finally, series star Jennifer Holland was asked about Peacemaker Season 2 on Instagram. In response to the question, the actress confirmed that the new season will begin filming this coming summer.
“Yessss we start filming this summer! It’s gonna be so gooooood,” Holland stated (via Deadline.)
Who starred in Peacemaker Season 1?
Peacemaker Season 1 starred John Cena as Peacemaker, Danielle Brooks as Leota Adebayo, Jennifer Holland as Emilia Harcourt, Freddie Stroma as Adrian Chase/Vigilante, Steve Agee as John Economos, Chukwudi Iwuji as Murn, Robert Patrick as Auggie Smith/White Dragon, and more. It’s unclear which characters will return for the next installment, but Gunn previously teased that he’s planning to establish more DC connections into the next chapter.
