WATCH: A Closer look at John Cena as Peacemaker in ‘The Suicide Squad’

In a recent video on YouTube, we got to see a little more into the character that WWE Superstar John Cena will play in the movie “The Suicide Squad”. A few action shots were also shared, much to the interest of a lot of fans.

John Cena will play the character ‘Peacemaker’ in the new movie. Directed by James Gunn, The Suicide Squad is a reboot of the original movie. Gunn has been reputed for his creative freeflow, which will come to life in the film.

Peacemaker is an anti-hero character with an interesting backstory. Formerly being an advocate for the use of non-lethal weapons and a pacifist diplomat, Christopher Smith transitioned into a violent and dark character willing to do anything to preserve the peace he wants.

The irony of the character is that he breaks his moral values to preserve the same, which tells the bigger story of many countries in the world when they go to war.

Peacemaker is a ‘shoot first, ask questions later’ kind of character. He will do anything and destroy anyone in his way when if it means achieving the end-goal of peace.

John Cena can portray the role very well

The character itself wasn’t originally made by DC Comics. It was a product of Charlton Comics that became one of the most popular of its time. DC later acquired the Superhero along with other Charlton Comics Superheroes.

Although Peacemaker is one of the lesser-known superheroes, he can play an extremely relevant role in Suicide Squad. The amount of screen time John Cena will get with this character or the part he has to play is still unknown, but more information will soon be revealed.

John Cena has taken a long break from WWE and hasn’t been seen in the ring for months. He has set out to pursue a career in Hollywood much like many other Superstars before him. 

Landing a huge role now, Cena has the platform to make it big and potentially get to bigger roles in the future. 

DC Comics also made a lot of fans happy by casting Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson as Black Adam. John Cena could be the next big thing. 

Everyone is pretty hyped for this new movie, and by the fact that James Gunn is directing it. The movie will surely crack it at the box office, and we all are super stoked for it.
