«Suicide Squad» spinoff will debut in January
John Cena’s “Peacemaker” TV series at HBO Max has a premiere date. The “Suicide Squad” spinoff will debut on January 13, 2022. The announcement was made during the second annual DC Fandome online event on Saturday. Along with the premiere date, HBO Max unveiled the first trailer for the series, which you can watch above. “Peacemaker” will follow Cena’s Christopher Smith aka Peacemaker, who was part of the expansive cast for James Gunn’s quasi-reboot of “The Suicide Squad,” which was released in August. The HBO Max series will explore Peacemaker’s origins and “extend the world that Gunn is creating.” It will pick up directly after the events of the movie, which saw Peacemaker laid up in a hospital bed after he apparently died from a gunshot wound. Steve Agee and Jennifer Holland also return from “The Suicide Squad” as John Econmos and Emilia Harcourt.
