Peacemaker is backand this time, John Cena is teasing a possible shift in his characters infamous disdain for Superman. During San Diego Comic-Con 2025, Cena and the Peacemaker cast sat down with IGN to talk about what fans can expect in Season 2. And yes, the topic of Superman came up immediately.
Season 2 of Peacemaker picks up just a month after the events of Superman, which Cena jokingly referred to as a Peacemaker prequel. If youve followed the series, youll remember Peacemaker hasnt exactly been a fan of the Man of Steel. But according to Cena, things might be changingjust dont expect him to spill too much yet.
Asked whether Peacemakers opinion of Superman had shifted after the events of the film, Cena swerved the spoiler trap with his usual style, while giving just enough to stir curiosity.
Its a playful response, but Cena clearly knows what hes doing. The actor acknowledged his surprise cameo in Superman and implied there will be more developments between the two characters moving forward. Fans who were waiting to see if Peacemakers grudge would intensify or soften got a hintbut no confirmation.
Cena also poked fun at how Peacemakers priorities have shifted, especially when it comes to joining the Justice Gang. When asked how serious Peacemaker was about becoming part of the team, he downplayed it with his usual dry wit.
While hes clearly not giving away key plot points, Cenas humor and deliberate phrasing hint that Season 2 may show Peacemaker growingor at least thinking twice before trying to pick a fight with another god-tier hero.
Peacemaker Season 2 drops August 21 on HBO Max, and from what Cena shared, it looks like theres plenty more chaosand maybe a little emotional evolutionto come.
