Jennifer Holland is making DC fans happy after revealing when Peacemaker Season 2 will start filming.
After a fan asked Holland on social media if a second season of the John Cena-starring Max series was happening, the star dropped the positive news.
“Yessss we start filming this summer! It’s gonna be so gooooood,” Holland replied on Instagram.
Holland plays Emilia Harcourt in the DC series created by James Gunn. The first season consisted of eight episodes and started streaming on Jan. 13, 2022.
Danielle Brooks, who stars as Leota Adebayo in the superhero show, teased that Season 2 was happening but was unsure when they would start filming.
“It’s happening,” Brooks told Deadline at the Critics Choice Awards red carpet. “That’s all I know. It’s happening. When? Not quite sure.”
Max ordered a second season of Peacemaker ahead of its first season finale following a strong debut on the streaming platform. The series follows the escapades of Peacemaker, a role that Cena originated on Gunn’s 2021 film The Suicide Squad. Peacemaker is a vainglorious man who believes in peace at any cost, no matter how many people he has to kill to get it.
The cast of the show also includes Freddie Stroma, Chukwudi Iwuji, Steve Agee, and Robert Patrick.
Gunn wrote all eight episodes of Peacemaker and directed five, including the first one. Gunn, Peter Safran and Matt Miller serve as executive producers on the series, with Cena as co-executive producer and Stacy Littlejohn as consulting producer. Based on characters from DC, Peacemaker is produced by Gunn’s Troll Court Entertainment and The Safran Company in association with Warner Bros. Television.

Jake Gyllenhaal is still interested in playing Batman on the big screen. The actor recently revealed that it “would be an honor” to portray the Dark Knight as it’s a classic role.

By now, we know John Cena’s “Peacemaker” series is one of the few former DCEU projects going forward under James Gunn’s newly revamped DC Studios.
