Peacemaker is going a whole new direction in season 2! James Gunn hypes up the series as it gears up for a return in the DC Universe.
Peacemaker is in an odd position. Despite being one of the best received projects to come out of the DC Universe in years, a fog of dread has overcome the fandom leading into season 2. This is series will somehow be persisting across the reboot put in place for the franchise by James Gunn and Peter Safran following their graduation to co-chairs of DC Studios.
This has left viewers with dozens of questions about everything from continuity to quality. With James Gunn now forced to split his attention between production on Peacemaker season 2, Superman, and dozens of other projects, it’s possible that the director could be spread too thin to be able to recapture the magic that made the first season truly special.
Peacemaker Season 2 Will Be ‘Different’
In a sense, those fears seem to be well-placed. When speaking on the DC Universe projects currently on his plate to The Hollywood Reporter, James Gunn did confirm that he’s taking a new approach to the series heading into season 2. However, he did assure fans that the project will be something truly magical and surprising when it makes its return next fall.
“And then season two of Peacemaker is also going to take people by surprise,” Gunn explained. “We take a very different route than the first season, and it’s a really magical story that people are going to be blown away by.”
Fans have already been speculating that Peacemaker season 2 may tackle elements of the multiverse to help explain the show’s transition into the new DC Universe. Given the magical connotations of James Gunn’s statement, it’s entirely possible that some sort of wizardry is in store for Christopher Smith and the gang to make the jump without having to do a complete reboot of the series.
Peacemaker season 2 is set to release in August 2025. Stay tuned for the latest news regarding the future of the DC Universe and make sure to subscribe to our YouTube channel for more content!
