Following yesterday's action-packed episode of Peacemaker, HBO Max has released a promo teasing what's to come in next week's fifth instalment, "Monkey Dory." We see more verbal clashes between the former Task Force X member and his team, while those mysterious Butterflies are shown closing in on Vigilante and Harcourt in a factory that appears to be producing the goop they eat.
Not too much is revealed beyond that, but it looks like another fun episode of The Suicide Squad spinoff.
Critics have responded extremely well to the HBO Max series as it currently holds an impressive 94% score on Rotten Tomatoes, where the first season has already been "Certified Fresh."
"Peacemaker quickly establishes itself as essential viewing for fans of The Suicide Squad," we said in our recent review of the series, "but it's a career-best performance from John Cena and the greatest opening credits of all time that will make sure you want to come back each week."
Director James Gunn recently revealed that he made the decision not to send the eighth and final episode of Peacemaker's first season out to critics due to fear of spoilers leaking. Clearly, something big is going to happen in the finale, and the filmmaker has already teased plans for more episodes so Christopher Smith will probably make it out alive (we're hoping that will be the case for Vigilante, too).
