Peacemaker (HBO Max) TV Show

Written and (mostly) directed by James Gunn

Starring: John Cena, Danielle Brooks, Freddie Stroma, Jennifer Holland, Chukwudi Iwuji, Steve Agee, Annie Chang, Lochlyn Munro, Nhut Le, and Robert Patrick

First three episodes of the 8-episode series are streaming now on Max

 

Lots of fun so far

 

This is great so far after the first 3 eps. I think if the tone leaned any more serious or goofy it wouldn't work but they hit the sweet spot imo. Cena's acting is probably the best he's ever done too. He sells it for me at least. I dig the team's dynamic so far too.

 

This might not be for me. The formula of these shows is so played out, and I’m hoping I don’t watch the big dumb sexist strongman charm the team and win over the audience. Still haven’t see the third episode but I’ll probably check out after that if this doesn’t go in an interesting direction.

 

I guess season 2 confirmed, did we know that already?

 

hate the music. Love the show.

 

Jennifer Holland (35), who plays Emilia Harcourt, has been dating James Gunn (55) since 2015. It is quite an age gap, which I guess is typical in Hollywood, but they were adults when they started seeing each other, so I don't have a problem with it. I'm more just amused that he cast her in his movie. I mean, I like her just fine in the role. Just reminds me of how Mike Flanagan puts Kate Siegel in everything haha

 

When Vigilante said his secret identity I thought I'd heard the name Adrian Chase before. He was Prometheus in Arrow and had a vendetta against Oliver. Obviously a very different version of the character tonally.

 

Only watched the first episode so far, but loved it, and I will NOT be skipping the credits.

 

for anyone who wants to watch the opening credits on a loop lol

 

The stingers for this show are so great.

 

I already prefer this to all the Disney+ MCU shows

 

Cannot watch an episode without watching the intro


I’m kind of surprised by how much I enjoy the show so far

 

Just finished the first episode and I'm loving this. Eagly is the bestt

 

Finished the first episode, watching 2nd now.

That intro never gets old

 

2 eps in. I'm loving this so far.

 

I will never click "skip intro" for this show and I can't say there are any other shows that do that for me lol

 

Finished all 3. This is so fun

 

Finished too and yep, this is great. Love all the characters.

 

Slammed all 3 last night, it’s fantastic. Eagly!

 

Not enough Eagly though

 

It’s animatronic, right?

 

CGI mostly, according to Gunn. Some shots are probably animatronic though.

 

gonna check this out

 

This is wayyyy better than I thought it would be. It’s been a while since something has actually made me laugh like this
