DC fans had their socks knocked off late last week with the release of the first trailer for The Suicide Squad, the newest film within the ever-growing DC Films universe. The R-rated, star-studded blockbuster has a lot of things for viewers to be hyped about, as well as the live-action debut of Peacemaker (John Cena), a pacifist vigilante who is already set to get his own spinoff TV series on HBO Max. With production on the Peacemaker series currently underway, it looks like Cena has gone to some great lengths to showcase his dedication to the character — including donning the Peacemaker costume in a recent interview with TNT’s NBA post-game show. The video, which you can check out below, even got an endorsement from The Suicide Squad and Peacemaker writer-director James Gunn, who clarified that he has not asked Cena to do the interviews in costume, but loves it nonetheless.
The fact that @JohnCena is doing every interview he does in his #Peacemaker costume is cracking me up. I swear I’m not asking him to do this! 😂 https://t.co/RLzjWoydqz
