This is the case of Peacemaker, show that will be included in the streaming platform that serves Warner Bros. Notably John Cena will repeat in the main role of said character, both in the feature film and in the series mentioned.

“Peacemaker has a clear set of ideals that I find really interesting. You know: ‘I want peace no matter how many men, women and children I need to kill to get it.’ It sounds like silly, but it also makes a lot of sense. And you see in John’s performance how he doesn’t feel good about it, something that I thought was the seed of an entire eight-episode show. “, he concluded.
