DC Studios boss James Gunn has confirmed that Saturday Night Live alum and Mean Girls star Tim Meadows has joined the cast of Peacemaker season 2.

The actor is set to play Langston Fleury, a newly created character for the DCU who is an A.R.G.U.S. agent.

It's also been confirmed that Superbad and Confess, Fletch director Greg Mottola has boarded the show to direct the second and third episodes of season 2. We know Gunn will helm the premiere (he's done so during production on Superman), but the rest of the directing team has yet to be revealed.

"Welcome to the [DCU], [Tim Meadows]," Gunn said of Instagram, "playing ARGUS agent Langston Fleury in [Peacemaker] Season 2!"

He'd later add, "Ever since seeing Daytrippers back in the '90's at Film Forum in NY, I’ve been a huge [Greg Mottola] fan - through Superbad and so much more. When we needed a director for episodes two and three of Season 2 of [Peacemaker] he was the first person I thought of. Can’t wait for you guys to see what we’re cooking!"

Peacemaker follows the explosive escapades of the character that John Cena reprises in the aftermath of James Gunn's 2021 film The Suicide Squad - a compellingly vainglorious man who believes in peace at any cost, no matter how many people he has to kill to get it.

"Creating Peacemaker has been one of the true highlights of my life, both professionally and otherwise, with John Cena and the incredible creative team around me, as well as our partners at Max," Gunn said when the show was renewed for season 2. "To have something we all love so much be loved by the audience in turn has been a wonderful experience."

"I can’t wait for folks to see where Team Peacemaker goes in Season Two!"

John Cena added, "I am incredibly honored and humbled by the response to Peacemaker and the experience of playing this character. Thank you to James Gunn, Peter Safran, HBO Max, the crew, and my castmates who worked tirelessly to make this unforgettable series."

Aw, YES! It's Jake Peralta's cannibal cellmate! He's my favorite inmate who likes to eat people.

@lazlodaytona - ...favorite inmate who eats people? You mean, there's more than one?

@Origame - 😂😜😃
It's from Brooklyn 99 and the show is epic in every way.

Tim Meadows is great, especially loved him as Caleb The Cannibal in B99 so it’s nice to have him in this!!.

Having Greg Mottola as part of the directing team is cool too since his sensibilities fit the show imo , been meaning to watch his latest film “Confess , Fletch” too.

Anyway , looking forward to S2 since i though the first one was solid!!.
