John Cena says Eagly will dance in Peacemaker Season 2’s new opening

James Gunn announced that Season 2 of “Peacemaker” will include a fresh dance sequence in the opening credits, much like the popular dance number from Season 1. As reported by Entertainment Weekly, Gunn stated, “You’ll get to witness Eagly attempting to dance for the first time.

He remarked, “He may not excel at it, but he certainly makes an effort to participate fully.” John Cena pointed out that each person approached the dance uniquely this time, taking into account its significance. “I believe they now understand its importance, and I hope that comes across in Season 2,” he stated.

The sequence of events has been updated because there have been major shifts in the cast. Gunn clarified, “Since we ended up killing everyone off during the season, it was almost inevitable.” For Season 2, fresh faces like Tim Meadows as Langston Fleury, Sol Rodriguez as Sasha Bordeaux, and returning actors such as Jennifer Holland, Freddie Stroma, and Danielle Brooks join the crew. Additionally, Judomaster will take on a more significant role this season.

In a recent update, Gunn shared that the upcoming sequence’s song won’t be “Do Ya Wanna Taste It” by Wig Wam once more. Instead, it will feature a fresh hair metal tune that aligns with the motifs of Season 2. As quoted by Gunn himself, “I debated back and forth quite a bit… in the end, I opted for using a new song.”

In Season 2, the narrative weaves into the broader DC Universe, with strong ties to Superman and the events that follow. James Gunn mentioned this connection. The Quantum Unfolding Chamber (QUC) from last season will play a crucial role in the upcoming storyline, linking to technology that’s also seen in relation to Superman. The premiere episode introduces Peacemaker interacting with characters connected to Superman, such as Isabela Merced’s Hawkgirl, Nathan Fillion’s Guy Gardner, and Sean Gunn’s Maxwell Lord.

According to Gunn, the story unfolds a few years following Season 1, without providing an explicit timeframe. In this new series, Peacemaker is finding it difficult to earn respect from the superhero community, who often ridicule him instead. As Gunn put it, “Peacemaker begins the season in a challenging position.
