The first teaser trailer for the upcoming Peacemaker series has arrived!

The first look was unveiled during a panel held at the DC FanDome live stream event on Saturday afternoon (October 16).

HBO Max revealed during the panel that the upcoming series, starring John Cena, will debut on Thursday, January 13.

Peacemaker will explore the origins of the character that Cena first portrayed in James Gunn‘s 2021 film, The Suicide Squad – a compellingly vainglorious man who believes in peace at any cost, no matter how many people he has to kill to get it.

The series also stars Danielle Brooks as Adebayo, Freddie Stroma as Vigilante, Jennifer Holland as Harcourt, Steve Agee as Economos, Chukwudi Iwuji as Murn and Robert Patrick as Auggie Smith.

Gunn wrote all eight episode of Peacemaker and he also directed five of them, including the first.
