WWE legend John Cena is an anti-hero in the DCEU
I’ve had the privilege and honor of playing different characters throughout my career. None have been as ABSOLUTELY INSANE as @DCPeacemaker.
Excited for you all to see it. #PEACEMAKER is steaming NOW on @hbomax!!!! https://t.co/NGgiFLhBEQ
John Cena has been the face of Vince McMahon's company for years. Following the introduction of new stars in the promotion, he embarked on his journey as an actor. It looks like the 16-time world champion is now fighting for "peace" as his DC Extended Universe character — Peacemaker.
DCEU introduced Peacemaker in its latest movie, The Suicide Squad. The character is described as a psychopathic assassin who can go to any lengths to achieve — you guessed it — peace.
The sky is indeed the limit for Cena's popularity. Thus, Warner Bros. announced a spin-off series starring him, also titled Peacemaker, streaming now on HBO Max.
