by EAStaff | July 27, 2025


HBO Max brought Peacemaker fans an unforgettable Comic-Con weekend, closing out its “Peacefest” fan experience with an exclusive, high-energy VIP party on Saturday night in San Diego. Cast and creatives—including James Gunn, John Cena, Jennifer Holland, Freddie Stroma, Steve Agee, Frank Grillo, Sol Rodriguez, and Tim Meadows—celebrated with fans, press, and invited guests.

The night featured electrifying live performances from Foxy Shazam, announced by Gunn as the band behind the season two opening credits, and glam-metal icons Steel Panther, creating a rock-infused finale worthy of Peacemaker’s chaotic charm.



Earlier that day, fans packed Hall H for the official Peacemaker panel, where the season two global trailer dropped to thunderous applause. The cast—including Cena, Brooks, Holland, Stroma, and others—joined showrunner and DC Studios Co-Head James Gunn for a deep-dive moderated by MTV’s Josh Horowitz.

“Peacefest” kicked off Thursday, July 24 at Nova San Diego nightclub, where fans entered a fully immersive world inspired by Peacemaker’s wild mind. Highlights included meet-and-greets with Eagly, exclusive access to the Season 2 Peacecycle, themed games, interactive booths like Adebayo’s Hero Test Photo Booth, and Vigilante’s merch shop.

Peacemaker Season 2 premieres Thursday, August 21 at 9PM ET/PT on HBO Max, promising more offbeat heroism, emotional reckoning, and explosive action as Peacemaker confronts a surreal alternate world—and his own past.
