Our new Superman, David Corenswet, just appeared on the set of Peacemaker Season 2 in his iconic blue-and-red suit, head to toe. No big announcement and no slick press release, but a surprise visit that is either an epic cameo or merely on-set good-natured fun. It began with a single harmless-looking selfie that just suddenly appeared on the internet: Corenswet, cape flowing, standing right beside John Cena in full Peacemaker mode.

It sparked worldwide excitement and chaos among fans almost immediately. It also makes sense in terms of timing, as new episodes of Peacemaker Season 2 are being shot simultaneously with the upcoming Superman movie by James Gunn. So, the two overlapping schedules might have resulted in this little behind-the-scenes crossover.

The great question floating everywhere now is: Does this mean that Superman will indeed make an appearance in Peacemaker Season 2? Maybe. Or perhaps it was simply a walk-through of a friendly kind that slipped into the camera. Theories, memes, and wild speculations are flying across social media.

It could be nothing more than a tease or a clue to something bigger, but either way, one thing is certain: fans are more excited than ever about what lies ahead in Gunn’s ever-expanding DC universe.


Speculations over the Peacemaker-Superman selfie

Let’s talk about the rumors. That innocent selfie of Corenswet and Cena caused a wave of speculation. Perhaps Corenswet simply had a spare moment while filming for the new Superman movie and thought he would visit the Peacemaker Season 2 set. Or perhaps Peacemaker Season 2 is tied to the story of Superman closely enough to allow a natural cameo.

Crossovers are something the writers have remained silent on, including James Gunn himself. In the new connected universe of DC, however, a simple surprise appearance would be enough to make fans go crazy.

The photo was posted by John Cena without a caption; was that some kind of insidious clue, or a behind-the-scenes click? Either way, it’s doing its job. Fans are excited that maybe Superman may finally turn up in Peacemaker Season 2.


How Peacemaker Season 2 is connected to the Superman saga

David Corenswet may or may not actually appear in Peacemaker Season 2, but his visit reveals one thing: James Gunn is bringing the DC Universe closer than ever. Season 2 of Peacemaker is already positioned to serve as a follow-up to Superman (2025), altering the history of the Justice League, blending plots, and introducing other characters into the same reality.

The fact that Corenswet is on the Peacemaker Season 2 set in full Superman costume is a fun hint that these heroes could meet. By combining small clues behind the scenes and big on-screen arcs, the franchise leaves fans with the sense that the DC world is one tightly woven tapestry brimming with unpredictable plot twists and turns.

In addition to that, James Gunn has made it clear that the decision to create Peacemaker Season 2 is not a spin-off that mysteriously appeared out of nowhere. On the contrary, it is connected with the next Superman movie, Superman: Man of Tomorrow, which will be released on July 9, 2027. In other words, the second season of Peacemaker is foreshadowing a bigger story that Gunn is calling the “Superman Saga.”

The show is no longer a side project but an important piece of the larger DC Universe puzzle. This connection is also enhanced by the timeline. Peacemaker Season 2 comes only a month after the 2025 Superman film, placing it directly in the heart of the DCU's story.

It is a clever gimmick, and it indicates how Gunn wishes all his projects, both movies and TV shows, to mesh and dovetail with one another. This not only gives the fans more reason to watch but also makes Peacemaker feel like it actually makes a difference in the future of the franchise.
