Peacemaker: 2 reasons why he needs a second season
1) John Cena's acting in season one

Since the first season was successful in every aspect, the production unit will hopefully consider coming up with another season.
Sarah Aubrey from HBO Max stated:
“The brilliance of James Gunn once again shines with Peacemaker. He took this character, brought to life by the inimitable John Cena, and created an exceptional series that’s simultaneously thrilling, hilarious and heartfelt, showcasing the humanity beneath this team of misfits living in a superhuman world."

"As the first original DC show to have its series premiere on HBO Max, we are thrilled that the viewers agreed to give peace a f*****g chance.”
