PEACEMAKER Star John Cena Reveals New Helmet Design; James Gunn shares photos from NYCC CREATURE COMMANDOS

PEACEMAKER Star John Cena Reveals New Helmet Design; James Gunn shares photos from NYCC CREATURE COMMANDOS

It looks like Christopher Smith will be sporting several different looks in the second season of Peacemaker.

Last month, James Gunn released a behind-the-scenes shot of Smith’s helmet from the back. Although it didn’t appear to be much different from the one Smith wore in Season 1 and The Suicide Squadit was clearly a new design.

Now, star John Cena has shared another photo on his Instagram page, and this one has a flipper.

It actually looks like it could be the hilariously named “Scabies for All” helmet, which Smith claimed would “give scabies to everyone within a mile radius, except of course the one wearing the helmet.”

In DCU-related news, Gunn has shared some photos from New York Comic-Con Creature commands visualization

Season 2 plot details are still under wraps, but we do know that Frank Grillo will appear as Rick Flag Sr., and there’s a lot of speculation that the story will be at least partially set in an alternate universe.

Although the photo has since been removed, a mural has recently been spotted on set featuring Cena’s peacemaker (wearing a slightly different outfit), his father in his White Dragon outfit, and a third mysterious character who many believe will be Christopher’s brother. Keith.

We know that Robert Patrick will return as Augee Smith despite being killed off at the end of Season 1, and the characters being somehow in a different part of the DC Multiverse would explain Gunn’s comments about Season 1 not forming part of the DCU. .

Instead of simply pretending that certain events (the Justice League cameos at the end of Season 1, for example) didn’t happen, Gunn could be planning to bring Peacemaker and the supporting characters into an entirely new reality.

“Peacemaker explores the continuing story of the character John Cena reprises after executive producer James Gunn’s 2021 film The Suicide Squad: a convincingly vainglorious man who believes in peace at any cost, no matter how many people he has to kill to get it!”

Gunn, Peter Safran and Matt Miller are executive producing the series. Co-executive producer John Cena and consulting producer Stacy Littlejohn are also involved in producing the show.

Peacemaker is slated to return to our screens in the back half of 2025.
