3 Key Details About Superman to Remember for Season 2

Peacemaker Season 2 is right around the corner, and fans can expect some exciting changes since we last saw our favorite anti-hero, Chris Smith, played by John Cena, in action. While Season 1 premiered on HBO Max back in 2022, two important projects have been released leading up to Season 2’s debut: the animated series Creature Commandos and the blockbuster film Superman from 2025. The Superman movie sets up some intriguing storylines that could play a role in Peacemaker Season 2.

If you haven’t seen Superman yet, be warned as we’re diving into spoiler territory here. In the film, Cena made a cameo as Peacemaker on The Sphere News, revealing some dark secrets about Superman’s past and his true purpose on Earth. This revelation could have implications for Season 2, as Chris Smith is known for his mission to bring peace at any cost.

Another crucial detail from Superman involves a dimensional rift that nearly destroyed Metropolis. This rift, opened by Lex Luthor, could tie into the existence of other dimensions teased in the Peacemaker Season 2 trailer. Plus, the fact that Peacemaker’s father kept his weapons in a pocket dimension adds a layer of intrigue to this storyline.

Lastly, both Superman and Peacemaker share a character: Rick Flag Sr. In Superman, Flag Sr., portrayed by Frank Grillo, plays a key role in opposing the militarized group Planet Watch. His connection to Chris Smith, who was responsible for his son’s death, adds a personal vendetta that could come into play in Season 2.

Let us know in the comments which elements from Superman you’re excited to see in Peacemaker Season 2. Don’t miss out as the show makes its return to HBO Max starting Thursday, August 21st.
