John Cena will reprise his role from <em>The Suicide Squad<\/em> movie to star in the series, and the film&#8217;s acclaimed writer\/director James Gunn will write all eight episodes of <em>Peacemaker<\/em> and will direct multiple episodes, including the first. Gunn and <em>The Suicide Squad<\/em> producer Peter Safran will serve as executive producers of the series, with Cena as co-executive producer. Based on characters from DC, Peacemaker will be produced by Gunn&#8217;s Troll Court Entertainment and The Safran Company in association with Warner Bros. Television. Peacemaker is scheduled to begin production in early 2021, prior to Gunn beginning work on the next Guardians of the Galaxy film.<\/p>\n<p>While details about <em>Peacemaker<\/em> are being kept under wraps, the series will explore the origins of the character that Cena will play in the upcoming film, a man who believes in peace at any cost &#8211; no matter how many people he has to kill to get it. The series will extend the world that Gunn is creating for <em>The Suicide Squad<\/em> movie, which is scheduled to be released in theaters by Warner Bros.
