On Saturday, November 23, Gunn expressed his excitement in a post on X. “To top it off, shooting yesterday was one of the most fun days of shooting I have EVER had!” he shared, thanking the people of Savannah, Georgia, for their hospitality. With only one day of filming left, fans are one step closer to returning to the chaotic world of Peacemaker and his team.

Building on the success of Season 1, 'Peacemaker' Season 2 will deepen its ties to the new DC Universe. While Snyder’s 'Justice League' cameo in Season 1 won’t be canon, Gunn teased that it will be humorously addressed in the upcoming episodes. The plot remains under wraps, but Frank Grillo will portray Rick Flag Sr., seeking revenge for his son’s death in 'The Suicide Squad'. Flag Sr. will also appear in 'Creature Commandos' and 'Superman: Legacy', reflecting the interconnected nature of Gunn’s DC vision.
