With marketing ramping up for Peacemaker season 2, it looks like the acclaimed series is bringing back a major villain from the days of the DCEU, and I need to know why. While the DCU's first movie, Superman, is due to be released on July 11, Peacemaker will be hot on its heels as it premieres on August 21, 2025. If the trailers, teasers, and sneak peeks of both of these installments are anything to go by, then I think the prognosis for the future of DC's new cinematic universe looks positive. 1p491s

A new Peacemaker season 2 preview shares a closer look at the return of the DC Universe TV show. One of the biggest mysteries for the DCU's Chapter 1: "Gods and Monsters" is how DC Studios is integrating the second season of the Peacemaker TV show into James Gunn's DC reboot, since John Cena's titular character and several other DCEU figures will be returning. As Peacemaker season 2 is set to arrive in August, the world will be getting those answers soon, while also getting to see the continuation of Christopher Smith's journey.

Green Lantern's role in Peacemakerseason 2 has been explained. The first few projects in James Gunn's DC Universe will see characters moving between them. That could be by design with the idea of a new shared universe but is also undoubtedly elevated by the fact that Gunn wrote the three first DCU Chapter One releases. When the Peacemaker season 2 trailer was released, Nathan Fillion's Guy Gardner, Isabela Merced's Hawkgirl, and Sean Gunn's Maxwell Lord were revealed to be part of the DC project. Now, more details about Green Lantern's role have emerged.

The DC Universe connections in Peacemakerseason 2 gets teased by James Gunn, as well as a major cameo coming up in the DC TV show. One of the big mysteries in the DCU's Chapter 1: "Gods and Monsters," is how Peacemaker season 2 will fit into this franchise, after initially being created as part of the DCEU. As Peacemaker season 2 will finally tackle those questions, fans should also expect some bigger tie-ins from the DCU.

Peacemaker season 2 is coming in August 2025, with James Gunn finally confirming its place on the DCU timeline. James Gunn's Superman movie is naturally taking all the recent DCU attention given its status as the first true step in the franchise's overarching story. Peacemaker season 2's story, though, will be the second live-action installment in the new DC Universe. Stemming from Peacemaker season 1's ending, which took place in the old DCEU, the main question for Gunn is how exactly the entry fits into the wider timeline.

The DCU is being rebooted with James Gunn's Superman, but is anything from the DCEU still canon?

The first trailer for Peacemaker season 2 is now out, and I believe that it shows the perfect way for how the DC Universe could explain John Cena's TV show moving from the DCEU to James Gunn's DCU. As Gunn previously said, Peacemaker season 1 was the biggest release ever for Max, which is why I always expected the show to survive the end of the old DCEU. Aside from the Justice League's finale cameo, Peacemaker season 1 largely stands on its own.

The newest DCU trailer makes some of my biggest theories and hopes way more likely following Superman. After the first live-action DCU project releases in July, Peacemaker season 2 is set to be the first live-action series releasing in August. As such, the first trailer for Peacemaker season 2 comes with some exciting reveals about the future.

DC Studios debuts the first official Peacemakerseason 2 teaser trailer, setting up Christopher Smith's new chapter in the DC Universe franchise. While it has been more than three years since the ending of Peacemaker season 1, the wait for John Cena's return to the superhero world is almost over, as his series is set to return this fall. With Peacemaker season 2 also becoming part of the DCU timeline, fans have been waiting to see how the former DCEU series carries into James Gunn's new franchise.
