In their announcement of the rebooted Dcu, Gunn, and Safran emphasized that nearly nothing from the old Dceu would carry over into the new cinematic universe.
The exceptions were ‘Peacemaker’ Season 1 and the character Blue Beetle, with Gunn assuring fans of a seamless transition into the second season of ‘Peacemaker’ without confusion.
The most recent announcement regarding the show complicates matters, as it appears that another project, ‘The Suicide Squad,’ is now considered canon to the Dcu. Frank Grillo has been cast as Rick Flag Sr. in ‘Peacemaker’ Season 2, having already been confirmed to voice the character for the animated show. This aligns with Gunn’s earlier statement about wanting voice actors to also portray their characters in live-action projects within the Dcu.
Following the announcement, it was confirmed that Flag Sr. will have unresolved issues with Peacemaker, stemming from Peacemaker’s role in the death of Flag Jr. in ‘The Suicide Squad.

With the announcement of Gunns & Safran’s newly rebooted Dcu, James Gunn made it very clear that almost nothing from the old Dceu won’t be canon to the new cinematic universe.
The only exceptions were ‘Peacemaker’ Season 1 and Blue Beetle (the character not the story), and Gunn promised to transition in the second season of ‘Peacemaker’ as smoothly as possible and not confusing to the fans.
Now the latest announcement related to the show makes that a bit impossible since it seems that yet another project is canon to the Dcu – ‘The Suicide Squad.’
Frank Grillo was cast as Rick Flag Sr. in ‘Peacemaker’ Season 2, after already being confirmed to voice the character for the animated show. This aligns with what Gunn said back when he was presenting the Dcu, that he would like for the voice actors to play themselves in live-action projects as well.

In the realm of superheroes, Spider-Man would be perhaps the biggest and most popular superhero of all time. The Web-Slinger was featured for the first time in 1962 in Amazing Fantasy #15, and from there, the character never had to look back. Even though the character has had his ups and downs in the last 62 years, he has always managed to bounce back to the top!
Tom Holland’s Spider-Man
Over the years, the character has had many renowned series, films, games, and merchandise that make him stand apart in the vast sea of superheroes. However, fans of the Web-Head are gripped by Fomo as a new Suicide Squad isekai anime series, featuring Harley Quinn, is in production.

One need only look at James Gunn to realize that not all good things in life come in the form of blessings and opportunities. Some of them appear in a red, white, and blue costumed dysfunctional superhero who vows to bring peace to the world, even if he has to kill every man, woman, and child for it. John Cena’s iconic Peacemaker returns to Dcu to get what he wants, even with James Gunn standing in his way.

Marvel actor and all-around badass Frank Grillo is trading his crossbones for stars and stripes after joining the cast of Peacemaker Season 2 for DC. Grillo is lacing up his boots to play Rick Flag Sr. for the sophomore season of James Gunn’s superhero series, starring John Cena as Christopher “Chris” Smith, aka Peacemaker. Rick Flag Sr. is the father of Rick Flag Jr., played by Joel Kinnaman in David Ayer’s Suicide Squad and Gunn’s The Suicide Squad. Cena’s Peacemaker killed Rick Flag Jr. in The Suicide Squad, leading me to think it’s time for revenge.
Before Grillo’s Rick Flag Sr. appears in Peacemaker Season 2, he’ll debut in animated form in the upcoming Max series Creature Commandos. The monster-centric animated series revolves around a black ops team working for Viola Davis’s Amanda Waller.

Frank Grillo has been cast in Season 2 of James Gunn’s popular DC series Peacemaker. Gunn announced the news Friday on Instagram, revealing Grillo will reprise the role of Rick Flag Sr. the character he voices in Gunn’s upcoming animated series Creature Commandos.
The Suicide Squad spinoff series starring John Cena, follows the escapades of Peacemaker, a role that Cena originated on Gunn’s 2021 film. Peacemaker is a vainglorious man who believes in peace at any cost, no matter how many people he has to kill to get it.
The show’s cast includes Danielle Brooks, Jennifer Holland, Freddie Stroma, Chukwudi Iwuji, Steve Agee, and Robert Patrick.

Team Peacemaker is growing.
Season 2 of James Gunn’s DC action series “Peacemaker” has added Frank Grillo, Gunn announced Friday on Threads. Grillo will play Rick Flag Sr., the father of Suicide Squad member Rick Flag Jr. (played by Joel Kinnaman in the previous two movies).
However, Grillo will debut as Rick Flag Sr. in animated form first. He’s part of the voice cast for “Creature Commandos,” an upcoming Max series about a black ops team of monsters working for Amanda Waller after she forms the Suicide Squad. “Creature Commandos” will kick off Gunn’s Phase One of the new DC Universe.

We know that Warner Bros. is working on increasing its anime library, which is probably a move motivated by Netflix’s and Disney’s “attacks” on the anime market. And while Warner Bros. is slowly working towards its goal, we know that a major title is coming soon. Since Warner is the owner of the rights to DC’s series, they have decided to build on the success of the Batman-themed anime film, Batman Ninja, by creating an anime series based on DC’s characters. Suicide Squad Isekai will see the titular group of supervillains enter a “new world” to complete a mission and we have finally received a release window for the series, as well as a new character trailer.

Today, there are so many superhero movies and TV shows that the genre as a whole needs a rethink and a new approach. Peacemaker, The Boys, Gen V and Invincible have already ironically and brutally poked fun at the absurdity of superheroes.
About a year ago, Emma Moran from Northern Ireland wrote a script for a typical sitcom about young friends in London, submitted it to a competition and won. Then, quite unexpectedly for the debutant, the series was ordered by Disney+ and a superhero topic was added.
Even before the premiere of the first season, the project was renewed for a second season. Extraordinary was 2023’s biggest comedy gem and deservedly received a perfect 100% on Rotten Tomatoes.

James Gunn is currently firing on all cylinders with two projects of the new Dcu in active production. First is the flagship title of the new and improved Dcu, Superman, which stars David Corneswet as Superman and Rachel Brosnahan as Lois Lane. The other is Peacemaker‘s sophomore season, marking the return of John Cena, who would be carrying the role over from his time in the Dceu.
Winston Duke as M’Baku
While a slew of characters have been cast in the new Dcu, the main trinity of the franchise is yet to be completed. With a number of actors already interested in the role, Winston Duke has thrown his hat in the ring for the role of Gotham’s Dark Knight.

John Cena is one of the most respected and adored figures in Hollywood. He has made a name for himself through various pursuits, being successful as both an actor and a wrestler. He has become iconic in many ways and entered the fabric of popular culture. His acting roles have gained him a completely different type of audience, playing the role of The Peacemaker in the DC Universe, acting in Barbie, being a part of Argylle, and even adorning the skin of Dominic Toretto in the Fast and Furious series.

Despite all these roles, he gets to star in an adaptation of a game. A recent update may change this as the actor might be getting a role in a highly anticipated adaptation of an iconic video game.

It seems John Cena is quite serious about turning from a professional wrestler into a recognized actor, as the movies starring him took over the streaming platforms charts. These include Prime’s prominently top-tier comedy Ricky Stanicky, Apple TV’s Argylle and we’re not talking about the hyped Barbie, where he has made a hilarious cameo.
Gained enough credit as an actor by portraying Peacemaker in The Suicide Squad in 2021 and the eponymous 2022 television series, Cena is only starting to explore his acting talent. However, one of his last years’ movies shows it not from the best side.
Featuring Cena’s Mason Pettis, a former special forces operative, it follows him on a freelance gig in South America. There he needs to protect disgraced journalist Claire Wellington as she goes to the fictional authoritarian country to interview its dictator.

In early 2023, James Gunn and Peter Safran introduced their rebooted universe named Dcu, unveiling a comprehensive lineup of projects. The most recent release in the Dceu was ‘Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom’ last year, which achieved some success, especially compared to many MCU films from that year that struggled with critics and box office performance.
In January, Gunn and Safran revealed the initial projects of the Dcu lineup and announced the team of writers responsible for crafting the overarching story: Drew Goddard, Jeremy Slater, Christina Hodson, Christal Henry, and Tom King. They outlined a plan spanning eight to ten years, divided into “chapters,” with potential for further expansion. The first chapter, ‘Gods and Monsters,’ featured films like ‘Superman’ (originally titled ‘Superman: Legacy’), ‘The Authority,’ ‘The Brave and the Bold,’ ‘Supergirl: Woman of Tomorrow,’ and ‘Swamp Thing,’ alongside television series such as ‘Creature Commandos,’ ‘Waller,’ ‘Lanterns,’ ‘Paradise Lost,’ and ‘Booster Gold....

Just like the first season, James Gunn has written every episode of Peacemaker season 2, but he won’t be able to direct as many this time around as he’s in the midst of directing Superman. “Yes, I’ve written all the episodes; but, no, in the interest of getting the show out there I won’t be able to direct them all (only some),” Gunn said last month. He added that that will be “three other great directors joining me for the season.“

James Gunn’s The Suicide Squad was excellent. Then again, he had already helmed two great Guardians Of The Galaxy films, not to mention the hilarious Super, so we knew he’d be able to juxtapose the violence and the humour well.
When it was announced (and teased at the end of The Suicide Squad) that John Cena’s Peacemaker would be getting his own spin-off TV show, fans were cautiously excited but also a little worried about how the character would translate into a longer format.
Well, Peacemaker, which debuted in 2022 was a hoot. From the wonderfully bonkers opening credits, which saw the entire cast do an extravagant dance number, to the even more bonkers narrative, the series was much better than anyone was expecting.

The Dcu has been slowly morphing into James Gunn’s vision, one project at a time. Although many questioned his authority as the co-ceo when it was initially announced, he has been proving himself to be worthy through his plan for the franchise. One could say that the filmmaker is being extensively deliberate with the projects he greenlights and those he doesn’t.

The perfect example of this would be the hit series, Peacemaker. Where many would assume that the decision for a second season was an easy one for Gunn, with the success that the series saw, the truth is something entirely different.

It is not a rare sight to see video games often collaborating with cinematic and other similar franchises that focus on a similar genre in order to entertain a larger audience. The same was the case when an unexpected collaboration between Mortal Kombat and DC came back in 2008, leaving fans shocked but glad as they enjoyed fighting against some of the most known superheroes.
What would have made such collaboration even better would be an animated movie, which is something that was actually pitched to Warner Bros, or WB as they own the copyright and trademarks to the superheroes. This was unfortunately shot down, depriving fans of what could have been a great experience watching the movie.

With the release of ‘Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom,’ the Dceu era came to a close, making way for Gunn’s and Safran’s Dcu. It’s been known for years that the Dcu would mirror the MCU, with multiple phases or “chapters.”
The first chapter, ‘Gods & Monsters,’ was announced, with ‘Creature Commandos’ being its inaugural project. However, ‘Superman: Legacy’ is set to unofficially kickstart the new Dcu. Notably, ‘Peacemaker’ Season 2 will transition from Dceu to the new Dcu, with Gunn ensuring it fits seamlessly into the canon.
Gunn recently confirmed that ‘Peacemaker’ Season 2 and ‘Waller’ will be filmed simultaneously. According to Pwinsider, John Cena will be occupied from June to November 2024 with shooting the second season. Cena will be filming in the Atlanta area during this time, with production expected to wrap up around Thanksgiving.

With the release of ‘Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom’ Dceu was finally retired and Gunn’s and Safran’s Dcu took over. We’ve known for years up to this point that Dcu will closely follow the example set by the MCU and that the cinematic universe will consist of several phases or rather “chapters.” The first such chapter in the Dcu was announced to be ‘Gods & Monsters.’ The first project released as a part of ‘Gods & Monsters’ will be ‘Creature Commandos’ but Gunn already stated that ‘Superman: Legacy’ will be the unofficial start of the new Dcu.

"Suicide Squad Isekai," premiering this July, bridges the worlds of DC Comics and anime. "Isekai" is a popular anime genre; meaning "another world" in Japanese, Isekai anime follows an everyman lead being transported to a magical realm, "Alice in Wonderland" style. This time, the "everyman" leads are Harley Quinn (played by Anna Nagase instead of Margot Robbie), Deadshot, Peacemaker, King Shark, and Clayface.
Wit Studio ("Attack on Titan") is producing "Suicide Squad Isekai," but the series is only happening thanks to Warner Bros. Japan. Variety recently reported that Warner Bros. plans for DC Comics-inspired anime are only beginning. Like Disney, Warner Bros. has noticed an audience appetite for anime and is responding to it.
James Gibbons, Warner Bros. Discovery president of Asia-Pacific, told Variety:

When it comes to social media engagements and interactions of the fans with the profiles of Hollywood icon Tom Cruise and former WWE Superstar and pro wrestling icon John Cena, they cannot be considered anything other than polar opposites of one another.
While at one place, Cruise is known to be completely dedicated to his career and posts only about his films and other ventures, Cena takes a different route and posts random pictures which has a deeper meaning that not everyone could understand.

But when it comes to words, both these stars are equal parts humorous on their Instagram, and when compared to each other, they both have some interesting bios to share. While Cena is more simple and direct with what he has to offer on his page, Cruise indulges in an inside joke about him running in almost all of his films.

‘Waller’ was confirmed to be in development back in 2022 as a spinoff of ‘Peacemaker’, with Viola Davis reprising her role as the titular character, recently it’s been confirmed that the show will not be comedy-oriented as ‘Peacemaker’ as Waller is much more serious character, and the show will try to reflect that tone.
‘Waller’ was supposed to be released in 2024, but the fact that Gunn is now focusing on the rest of the Dcu projects, the best-case scenario is that the show gets released in 2025, even though the 2024 release date is still present in some sources.
Since little is known regarding the overall plot of the movie, and the characters set to appear in it, we were delighted when new names appeared on the official IMDb page for the show. Mostly stunt-doubles are in question, but they do reveal what kind of characters we can expect.

Since the ’80s, several pro-wrestling giants have attempted to transition into the realm of movies, but only a few did manage to prevail on the silver screen. And similar was the case for John Cena for nearly a decade, when he started out in showbiz back in the 2000s but was met with little success, as his movies failed to make it big at the box office.
While it seemed his acting career might’ve been heading towards the same track as Hulk Hogan, Stone Cold Steve Austin, and Triple H’s run in showbiz, one change ended up salvaging his career.

Warner Bros. Discovery is to significantly expand its investment and production of Japanese anime through its existing local studio in Japan.
“We have a Japanese anime studio, which has been producing five or ten anime series per year, over the last few years,” said James Gibbons, Wbd president of Asia-Pacific. “We’ve approved expansion to take that to more than ten series per year.”
The studio has been operational since 2011 and delivered over 80 titles in that span, a mix of high-quality anime, live action series and movies. These include “JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure,” which was originally serialized in a manga magazine starting in 1987 and became an animated series that launched in 2012, the “Record of Ragnarok” series and a “Batman Ninja” anime movie.

The filmmaker and DC Studios co-chief recently confirmed that a second season of the hit show Peacemaker will be filming soon and that he would be directing some episodes of the series as he was also working on Superman. Gunn also said that the spinoff series Waller was in development.
Gunn revealed that season one of Peacemaker was not canon to the Dcu as the shared universe only begins when the animated show Creature Commandos begins to air. The filmmaker mentioned that season two, however, would be canon to the Dcu and would take place after Superman, leading fans to be more confused about the timeline of the universe.

One of the greatest nights in entertainment is when the Oscars arrive to reward all the great movies of the year. In the Oscars 2024 edition of the very prestigious awards, John Cena presented the Costume Design Awards totally naked. This was one of the highlights of the night; the protagonist of Peacemaker had a very bizarre and funny moment.
The creator of Mortal Kombat, Ed Boon, has posted on X how he has received many messages asking for a skin of Peacemaker that looks like his appearance in the Oscars. This could be a very weird but possible variation to add to Mortal Kombat 1.

Do you really, do you really wanna taste it? Yes, we do! But where will that taste — that is, season two of Peacemaker — land in the DC Universe timeline? That was one of the biggest questions when it was announced that the Dcu would be replacing the Dceu. But James Gunn has stepped in to clear up any confusion…even if it still might be a little unclear just how it will all eventually come together.
James Gunn took to Threads — as he has grown quite fond of — to address where season two of Peacemaker sits in the evolving DC Universe, writing that it “will take place after the events in Superman.” It’s absolutely also worth noting that Gunn said that season one — which was released in 2022 and so part of the Dceu — is not canon in the Dcu. Got it? Good, moving on!
