Peacemaker WB DC

I haven't seen The Suicide Squad yet. I know Peacemaker was included in it.

This trailer for the Peacemaker tv show from the DC FanDome event was just released.

Doesn't look to have any spoilers in it. I don't know if it's a prequel or a sequel.

Checked wiki for the basic details of the show and it does have a bit of a spoiler for The Suicide Squad..

"Set after the events of The Suicide Squad (2021), the series explores the origins of Peacemaker and his subsequent missions."

and now I know it's a sequel.. I guess he survives The Suicide Squad! 🙂

Is this for Disney or Netflix over here?

It won't be Disney anyway as it's DC comics but it could come to Netflix. Hard to say as Doom Patrol is on Starz Play in UK

Agent Coulson · 03-12-2021 3:41pm

Starts in January 13th

James Gunn is directing 5 of the 8 episodes.

John Cena reprises his role as Peacemaker in the spin off from The Suicide Squad.

May Sky Max or Sky Altantic? They seem to get HBO or HBO Max programmes

Yeah Now TV or Sky is probably where it will end up

Every episode will have a post credit scene

Agent Coulson · 13-01-2022 11:16am

Well those three episodes were a whole lot of fun and ten times better than the two movies it spawned from.

fritzelly · 13-01-2022 9:08pm

Damn, enjoyed that a lot more than I expected especially with Cena being the lead

CastorTroy · 13-01-2022 10:34pm

Yep was just stupid fun overall.

Opening credits were great!

Agent Coulson · 14-01-2022 5:43pm

The opening credits are fantastic.

CastorTroy · 14-01-2022 8:42pm

Of course, Eagly's the real star of the show and I await the Eagly spinoff announcement.

gmisk · 14-01-2022 9:08pm

Really enjoyed the suicide squad so was hopeful for this, I have only watched episode one, but what an absolute riot! Those opening titles are genius.

Slabacans · 15-01-2022 1:28pm

One episode in and Cena's already forgiven for never turning heel. Great fun. Can't wait to get stuck into eps. 2&3 today.

Eduard Khil · 15-01-2022 2:13pm

John Cena very very good in the first 2 episodes will give number 3 a watch later today, his dad is one bad Mutha Trucker the language in the show is off the charts not something I expected to ever see on TV again.

Definitely 1m times better than The Suicide Squad, Cena is a good bad guy given the chance with this he will be a very good DC antagonist.

Busi_Girl08 · 15-01-2022 11:54pm

Loving the show so far. John Cena is brilliant in it, and the music is unreal.

PsychoPete · 16-01-2022 11:26am

Really enjoyed those three episodes, it's nice to have a superhero show with sex,drugs,violence and plenty of cursing

CastorTroy · 16-01-2022 3:57pm

How long until people start recreating the opening credits on YouTube or wherever?

You just know it's going to be a tiktok thing. I'm amazing how all the actors managed to do that intro with straight faces because it's both hilarious and ridiculous

CastorTroy · 16-01-2022 5:14pm

Not on their first take anyway

Nope and no UK (so Ireland too I would think) release date yet.

It is "online"

Slydice · 17-01-2022 12:05am

1: The Eagly scenes sure were something. What the f*ck was

she?!?! Some kind of parademon or something? 😲

Early is so loyal! Need backstory!

Slydice · 17-01-2022 12:53am

2: Well, there goes the

tech hook up from his Dad. Feels like the show wants the Dad in prision though.

..and cue intro to the sidekick I'm guessing

still no clue on what a Butterfly is.. starting to think none of em know

https://www.boards.ie/discussion/comment/118487539#Comment_118487539

You'll find out in episode 3 and Peacemaker was right

Slydice · 17-01-2022 1:45am

3: Aaaaaaaah, so that's the

Butterfly thingamabobs

The botched job on the foot was horrific!

All the post-credits scenes on all of the episodes so far seem to be just to add a joke. Don't think I've noticed any can't-be-missed to them... but anyway.. there's post-credits scenes on all the first three episodes in case anyone missed em.

Slydice · 17-01-2022 1:46am

Checked the wiki: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peacemaker_(TV_series)

Looks like all the episodes were written by Gunn so I'm guessing season one is a fully wrapped story.

it was such a relief to see the sex drugs and violence! and also they also handle the topic of men creeping on women brilliantly and effectively without being preachy about it

Bandana boy · 19-01-2022 4:11pm

Sex , Drugs , Proper rock and Roll , Murder ,Mayhem and Belly Laughs , What a brilliant show .

Cena is a revelation Oh and Fu©K Aquaman , keep fighting the fight Pepethefrog89

CastorTroy · 19-01-2022 4:23pm

Sounds like they got Aquaman mixed up with The Deep from The Boys.

Penn · 19-01-2022 7:14pm

The bit in Episode 3 with Peacemaker talking about butt babies, is that from something else? It sounds word for word like it was in something else and I've heard it before but Google is throwing up nothing.

CastorTroy · 19-01-2022 8:57pm

It was in one of the trailers, so maybe that's where you heard it

Agent Coulson · 20-01-2022 8:50am

Another great episode and a nice twist at the end.

I am not a Duck.

Penn · 20-01-2022 2:16pm

https://www.boards.ie/discussion/comment/118502558#Comment_118502558

I did consider that, but I'm not sure. I nearly have the likes of Mark Wahlberg or Chris Hemsworth saying it in something.

Maybe it is just from the trailer though.

fritzelly · 20-01-2022 9:27pm

Loving this show, great scene in the prison

And Cena has got the dance moves for such a big guy

20-01-2022 9:31pm

The only character i am not really liking is the blonde one played by james gunn's wife.

SamStonesArm · 20-01-2022 9:34pm

Only watched the first episode, thought it was brilliant. Looking forward to the rest.

Slydice · 20-01-2022 10:07pm

4: Didn't see the twist coming

I don't think he was like that all along. I'd say he got compromised during the show.. maybe on the op.

Feels like the show might be going into a bit of cost saving for a while and gonna lean into some character and team development.

yabadabado · 20-01-2022 11:00pm

Another enjoyable episode.

Cena is brilliant in this.

Jennifer Holland? She isn't his wife.

I think she is excellent in it.

The whole cast are terrific Danielle Brooks is a real scene stealer.

yabadabado · 21-01-2022 5:15pm

I agree ,I think the whole cast are doing a good job.

The opening credits will never get old either.Fantastic.

21-01-2022 10:23pm

https://www.boards.ie/discussion/comment/118511337#Comment_118511337

Ok not his wife but his long term partner.

gmisk · 21-01-2022 10:24pm

https://www.boards.ie/discussion/comment/118513299#Comment_118513299

It's one of the few opening credits I would never skip!

iguana · 22-01-2022 12:42pm

I find Jennifer Holland a little hard to look at as she has very obvious fillers, especially her lips. She's only 35 and it's making her look like a much older woman attempting to look 35. It's kind of weird and I get an uncanny valley sensation from watching her. There is no real subtlety of emotion in her facial expressions either, which I don't know is acting ability or frozen face. But it's making her all of her reactions to what goes on around her very one note. Like when she picked Adrian up from the jail and he said he thinks he made things worse. She just looks kind of sympathetic and motherly, which is absolutely not in keeping with her character. She needed to be able to display complex emotion there and she didn't.

gazzer · 22-01-2022 1:05pm

Clemson looks so like Amanda Waller. Good casting

Agent Coulson · 22-01-2022 3:31pm

Yeah there is something of about Jennifer Holland that takes me out of the show when she is on screen compared to the rest of the cast who are fantastic.

The frozen face doesn't help and I just don't she is a good actor either.

Brief behind the scenes of the opening credits.

And seems even had some help from Alan Tudyk
