Reasons you shouldn’t miss Peacemaker Season 2
Connection with the DCU
Peacemaker Season 2 is a key story in the DC Universe (DCU) as Frank Grillo returns as Rick Flag Sr., a major character that was introduced in Creature Commandos (2024) series, and also appears in the Superman movie of James Gunn, hinting at how everything is connected. Additionally, the spin-off series Waller promises to continue the storyline of Peacemaker, keeping the DCU’s narrative moving forward smoothly.
Season 2 is a follow-up to Superman movie
James Gunn’s Superman movie serves as the direct prequel to Peacemaker Season 2, delving into the aftermath of the events. James Gunn earlier revealed to The Hollywood Reporter that the second season would also feature the characters and storyline that would be introduced in the movie, including the Justice League-adjacent team called The Justice Gang, which is funded by Maxwell Lord.
Delves into emotional side
Season 2 promises to explore Peacemaker’s struggles and his internal battles. Instead of flaunting him as a loud and violent superhero, the series will exhibit a closer look at his emotional side and how he’s trying to be a better person. The story will follow his journey as he faces his past, and hopefully finds a path towards healing.
Exploration of romance and love
We have already got some hints from the trailer, making fans desperately hope to see a romantic story between Peacemaker and Emilia Harcourt. The new season will also show the superhero finding love in an alternative world. While the first season heavily featured their professional dynamics, the second season is expected to delve into their relationship.
