HBO Max's newest series, Peacemaker, stars John Cena as the titular character, who believes in peace at any cost… as he noted in The Suicide Squad, “No matter how many people I have to kill to get it!” The rest of the cast includes Danielle Brooks as Adebayo, Freddie Stroma as Vigilante, Jennifer Holland as Harcourt, Chukwudi Iwuji as Murn, Steve Agee as Economos and Robert Patrick as Auggie Smith, the Peacemaker’s dad. Here are some shots of them in season one of the show.

Title Sequence

'Suicide Squad' director James Gunn said of the unskippable title sequence, “First of all, I want to vanquish the skip-forward button. There’s a lot of people that work hard on the show and I want people to get to see the name of our production designer Lisa, our editors Fred and Greg, and all of our guest stars and actors and I want them to see those names.”

Behind The Choreography

Gunn also said of the opening song of Wig Wam’s ‘Do Ya Want To Taste It,’ the basic concept of everyone in the opening credits scene having a serious expression on their faces, while having dance moves that are as “ludicrous as possible” was Gunn’s ultimate goal, which we think he surely achieved.
