The anti-hero played by John Cena appeared as a villain of sorts in Suicide Squad, but then had his own redemption in the HBO series that bears the title of his own name. The first season of the series was a hit with audiences, as well as being a lot of fun, and there are plans for more seasons\u2026. so <strong>yes,<\/strong> <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/en.softonic.com\/articles\/john-cena-golf-pga-tour-2k23\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Peacemaker <\/a>is sticking around, and along with him the rest of the cast of his series.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/sft\/articles\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/2\/2023\/08\/peacemaker-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-302698\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Amanda Waller &#8211; Viola Davis<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Viola Davis&#8217; Amanda Waller has already survived two independent installments of Suicide Squad, and she has done so making it very clear that she is the perfect boss of this group of villains and antiheroes. As it could not be otherwise,<strong> Gunn has rescued her for his new films and series<\/strong>, so her next appearance will be in Creature Commandos, an animated series in which the character will have a great importance. In addition, we must remember that she will have her own series on <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/en.softonic.com\/articles\/the-exorcist-of-the-pope-hbo-max\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">HBO Max<\/a><\/strong> titled Waller.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/sft\/articles\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/2\/2023\/08\/amanda-waller-1-1024x621.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-302699\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Weasel &#8211; Sean Gunn<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Crazy Weasel Weasel, played by <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/en.softonic.com\/articles\/these-are-the-guardians-to-whom-we-say-goodbye-for-ever\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">James Gunn&#8217;s<\/a> <\/strong>brother, will serve as comic relief for the animated series Creature Commandos. At the end of Suicide Squad we saw that she had survived even though she appeared to have drowned, and it <strong>looks like she will continue to appear in other DC Comics spin-offs.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/sft\/articles\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/2\/2023\/08\/weasel-3-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-302700\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Blue Beetle &#8211; Xolo Maridue\u00f1a<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Although <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/en.softonic.com\/articles\/trailer-blue-beetle-failure\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Blue Beetle<\/a> is a movie that was produced before James Gunn reached the top of DC<\/strong>, the director has already confirmed that it is the first official DCU movie. This means that, even though it was a failure, it is already part of the new universe they are shaping at Warner, and therefore we will be able to see the character again in future productions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/sft\/articles\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/2\/2023\/08\/blue-beetle-dc-1024x576.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-302702\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Wonder Woman &#8211; Gal Gadot<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>This character is a reasonable doubt, but there are certain clues that lead us to believe that she will remain in the DCU. Even though Superman has suffered a recast and Batman has another one coming, <strong>Gal Gadot&#8217;s Wonder Woman could stay<\/strong>. In an interview, the actress confirmed that Gunn has among his plans to make a third part of Wonder Woman, and there is already in development a series about the origins of her world. Thus, Gadot may be one of the few survivors of this great screening of Gunn.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/sft\/articles\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/2\/2023\/08\/wonder-woman-2-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-302703\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n<div class=\"sc-card-program\">\r\n  <div class=\"sc-card-program__body\">\r\n    <div class=\"sc-card-program__row clearfix\">\r\n      <div class=\"sc-card-program__col-logo\">\r\n        <img decoding=\"async\" class=\"sc-card-program__img\" alt=\"HBO Max\" src=\"https:\/\/images.sftcdn.net\/images\/t_app-icon-s\/p\/a2f73840-9b6e-11e6-a5b8-00163ec9f5fa\/1641088715\/hbo-max-logo\" width=\"100px\" height=\"100px\">\r\n      <\/div>\r\n      <div class=\"sc-card-program__col-title\">\r\n        <span class=\"sc-card-program__title\">HBO Max<\/span>\r\n        <a class=\"sc-card-program__button sc-card-program-internal\" href=\"https:\/\/hbo-max.en.softonic.com\/android\" target=\"_self\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">DOWNLOAD<\/a>\r\n      <\/div>\r\n      <div class=\"sc-card-program__col-rating\">\r\n        <svg class=\"rating-score__content\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" version=\"1.1\" x=\"0\" y=\"0\" viewbox=\"0 0 50 50\" enable-background=\"new 0 0 50 50\" xml:space=\"preserve\"><path class=\"rating-score__background rating-score--good\" fill=\"none\" stroke-width=\"6\" stroke-miterlimit=\"10\" d=\"M40 40c8.3-8.3 8.3-21.7 0-30s-21.7-8.3-30 0 -8.3 21.7 0 30\"><\/path><path class=\"rating-score__value rating-score__value--0\" fill=\"none\" stroke-width=\"6\" stroke-dashoffset=\"0\" stroke-miterlimit=\"10\" d=\"M40 40c8.3-8.3 8.3-21.7 0-30s-21.7-8.3-30 0 -8.3 21.7 0 30\"><\/path><text class=\"rating-score__number\" content=\"\" text-anchor=\"middle\" transform=\"matrix(1 0 0 1 25 31.0837)\" data-auto=\"app-user-score\"><\/text><\/svg>\r\n      <\/div>\r\n    <\/div>\r\n    <div class=\"sc-card-program__row\">\r\n      <span class=\"sc-card-program__description\"><\/span>\r\n    <\/div>\r\n    <div class=\"sc-card-program__row\">\r\n      <img decoding=\"async\" class=\"sc-card-program__bigpic\" src=\"\" onerror=\"this.style.display='none'\">\r\n    <\/div>\r\n    <a class=\"sc-card-program__link track-link sc-card-program-internal\" href=\"https:\/\/hbo-max.en.softonic.com\/android\" target=\"_self\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><\/a>\r\n  <\/div>\r\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Some of the links added in the article are part of affiliate campaigns and may represent benefits for Softonic.<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Since James Gunn signed on with Warner Bros.
