Peacemaker (2022)
John Cena stars as Christopher Smith, AKA the titular Peacemaker in James Gunn's spin-off/sequel TV series to The Suicide Squad. Set after the film's events, Peacemaker follows the misguided hero with a vanity complex but believes in peace, no matter how large the body count he has to rack up to get it. Having survived his mission in the Suicide Squad (Aka Task Force X), he's been enlisted again to join a new team and save the world. With his blade eagle sidekick, Eagly, Peacemaker will embark on a misguided quest for peace as he fights to do the right thing - as wrongly as possible.
