PEACEMAKER Clip Reveals The Unlikely Team's Dynamic And Teases Christopher Smith's Pet "Eagle-y"

We're expecting the trailer for Peacemaker to be released during DC FanDome, but a new clip from the HBO Max series dropped during an HBO presentation today that offers a better idea of what's to come.

HBO held an event earlier today to mark the European launch of its HBO Max streaming service, and we were treated to a new glimpse of Peacemaker, Warner Bros.' first big budget small screen project set in the DC Extended Universe (spinning out of the events of The Suicide Squad movie). 

In this sneak peek, we see John Cena's Christopher Smith meeting with members of A.R.G.U.S., including Jennifer Holland's Emilia Harcourt and Steve Agee's John Economos. They were tasked with working alongside the Task Force X alum in The Suicide Squad's post-credits scene as part of Amanda Waller's retribution for the role they played in overruling her during the Corto Maltese mission. 

The group clearly isn't intimidated by Peacemaker as they make fun of both his ridiculous costume and the fact that he has a pet eagle name "Eagle-y." The teaser ends with a new logo for the series and the promise that it will arrive on HBO Max sometime in January 2022. 

The video was accompanied by the brief synopsis, "He's got the looks, the car, and the best sidekick ever -- all in the name of peace."

Check out this new look at Peacemaker below:

@AleSir19 - Suicide Squad was hilarious though, this seems really half assed

@Cap1 - i didnt find it funny at all but clips are usually put of flow and context.
Cap1
Cap1 - 10/5/2021, 4:36 AM
@Jeight8 - you’d think they’d release a clip that’d be funny without context, though. Or at least be funny at all
Jeight8
Jeight8 - 10/5/2021, 4:37 AM
@Cap1 - yeah, i dont know. We will see.

Gunns gumor can be an acquired taste lol.

@Cap1 - well, I giggle a bit...and I thought those conversation are not mean to be too funny..it's more like..a rant..or banter....having some casual unintentionally fun conversation..doesn't need to be funny..like you have some random chats with your friends in the bar, cafe, restaurant...etc

@Cap1 - you know what else seemed unfunny? All the jokes in the TSS trailers. Then the movie dropped and critics were calling it one of the best cbm’s in years. This wasn’t even bad humor y’all been living off Cap Marvel and Ant Man 12 but can’t take an eagle gag git the [frick] outta here lol

@Cap1 - Yea it’s rough. Felt like discount Office humor and I enjoyed the office (wasn’t always funny, but mostly was).

Maybe idk people like this, but I wouldn’t laugh at this shit if I was at the table.

Jeight8 - 10/5/2021, 5:35 AM
@McMurdo - which critics? It has a 90% with 7.5 average rsting.

Its great but hardly one of the hest of all time. There are at peast 20 xbms with better reception.

Cap1 - 10/5/2021, 5:40 AM
@McMurdo - I found TSS trailer jokes hilarious. Way to assume my guy! Plus I didn’t like Cap Marvel n my sense of humour stems further than 2 Marvel characters lmao. Dunno where ur rage has come from bro, u seem very irate. It’s not that deep

@Cap1 - You don't like his story, write your own.

Cap1 - 10/5/2021, 7:50 AM
@soberchimera - ah yes i’ll just go ahead and write my own take on a Peacemaker series which will be greenlit by a major streaming service. Why didn’t I think of that !
McMurdo
McMurdo - 10/5/2021, 8:59 AM
@Jeight8 - read the reviews on rotten tomatoes. I’m acutely aware of its rotten tomatoes percentages.
McMurdo
McMurdo - 10/5/2021, 9:00 AM
@Cap1 - you were in the minority round these parts the trailers played very not funny over the top Gunn. Majority worked in the finished film IMO

That wasn’t funny. I’m sure some found it funny, but it ain’t it for me.

I like the jokes, but the editing and pacing make them fall flat.

The office hijinks stuff was my least favourite aspect of the Suicide Squad. I'm not interested in more of that.
TheWalkingCuban
TheWalkingCuban - 10/5/2021, 5:14 AM
@Spagett - guess they really felt they had a Dwight, Angela, Stanley, and uhhh, Stanley’s mistress, dynamic on their hands. Not even close. The only one with a nuanced personality is Cena. He’s actually pretty Dwightish. Man his coworkers suck

Of all characters to get a spinoff show from a movie they picked Peacemaker... Not Bloodsport or Harley but Peacemaker....
Blergh
Blergh - 10/5/2021, 5:08 AM
@SonOfAGif - Margot was probably too expensive for a TV show (even if it's on HBO Max) and Bloodsport required too much CGI.
Plus John China has quite the massive fanbase

@SonOfAGif

James Gunn picked Peacemaker.

@SonOfAGif - i dig peacemaker,homie
lawndart
lawndart - 10/5/2021, 6:21 AM
@SonOfAGif - cheaper than the other two and Cena is trying to make a name for himself as an actor so he’ll take the work.
Slotherin
Slotherin - 10/5/2021, 9:27 AM
@SonOfAGif - Harley inevitably will have more appearances and Bloodsport pretty much had a completed arc.

Peacemaker actually kinda makes the most sense considering he was left alive and is still an easy stooge for Waller.
TheWalkingCuban
TheWalkingCuban - 10/5/2021, 5:04 AM
Why do you wear that thing?
“Well…”
Blergh

Not sure about this series. Of the HBO Max original DC productions I'm more looking forward to Black Canary. Hopefully we'll get Green Arrows debut there.

Gonna watch it because I liked Peacemaker in TSS, but that clip was... WOOF.
