DC fans will be pleased to learn that the second season of Peacemaker is finally moving ahead \u2013 and we now know when cameras are set to start rolling again.<\/p>\n

A spin-off from 2021 blockbuster The Suicide Squad, the series stars John Cena as Christopher Smith, a somewhat disturbed man working for the fictional US government organisation ARGUS in his titular vigilante persona.<\/p>\n

Contrary to his chosen codename, Peacemaker is in fact a rather violent individual, who is prepared to do virtually anything for what he perceives to be the greater good.<\/p>\n

The first season delved into how the character\u2019s warped view of the world initially formed, with more character study and sci-fi hijinks sure to feature in the next instalment.<\/p>

Now, Cena\u2019s co-star Jennifer Holland, who plays ARGUS agent Emilia Harcourt, has said (via Instagram) that Peacemaker season 2 will commence filming \u201cthis summer\u201d.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s gonna be so gooooood,\u201d she told a fan on the social media site.<\/p>\n

Previously, co-star Danielle Brooks had said that the show would \u201chopefully\u201d start back up this year<\/a>, with this latest update suggesting that HBO is sticking to that schedule.<\/p>\n

Much has changed for the DC Extended Universe since Peacemaker season 1 arrived, with the show\u2019s creator James Gunn now heading up DC Studios alongside Peter Safran.<\/p>\n

Gunn is again penning scripts for the second outing, although it\u2019s unclear if he\u2019ll have time to direct episodes of the show given his ongoing commitment to the much-anticipated Superman reboot<\/a>.<\/p>\n

That film stars David Corenswet and Rachel Brosnahan as Clark Kent and Lois Lane, while the UK\u2019s own Nicholas Hoult will be the latest actor to portray arch-nemesis Lex Luthor.<\/p>\n

With Gunn across both projects and Peacemaker season 2 likely not to see release until next year, it\u2019s possible there could be some Easter eggs and references tying the two DC releases together. Watch this space.<\/p>\n
