Just one episode of Peacemaker Season 2 was enough to get the fans buzzing with anticipation about what is to happen next. So many things happened in the first episode of Peacemaker Season 2 that anticipation is at an all-time high. This is not just because of the storyline but also because of the fact that James Gunn is helming this season.
James Gunn became the talk of the town right from the release of the 2025 Superman movie. In an interview, he also mentioned a cameo that might come in Peacemaker season 2. He said,
“There might even be one really, really, really big cameo near the end of the show.”
Many viewers pointed out that this big cameo might be that of the Kaiju that Superman fights with in the 2025 movie. Let’s dive into the fan speculations through a Reddit post about whether the Kaiju will be in Peacemaker Season 2 or not.
Fans Speculate About the Kaiju’s Appearance in Peacemaker Season 2
It cannot be denied that the DC Universe is being reshaped by James Gunn. His projects are also paving the way towards success. Right after the release of the first episode of Peacemaker Season 2, fans noticed something.
There were certain ties between the series and the movie. This, along with James Gunn’s words, led to speculation about whether the Kaiju will be present in the second season or not. A fan on Reddit commented,
“It's from this ScreenRant interview, and it's not a rumor, it's confirmed we see the Top Trio fight a similar kaiju in one of the first five episodes. James Gunn says so. I don't think the kaiju has anything to do with the broader plot, I think it's just supposed to establish the Trios hero credentials when Chris makes a new life in the alternate reality.”

Another fan commented,
“Yep, saw this video when it came out as well. I think this is going to line up with the scene we see in the trailer of our Chris donning Earth 2-Chris' suit, walking into the Earth-2 ARGUS completely covered in green guts and goo, where he and Earth-2 Harcourt walk up to each other all lovey dovey.”
If the Kaiju does appear in the series, then it would definitely be interesting to watch. The idea of the Kaiju’s cameo also seems very much in line with James Gunn’s vision. In the first episode of Peacemaker Season 2, we see that Peacemaker is trying to join the team of Justice Gang.
He even goes for an interview as he thinks joining the team would lead to his widespread acceptance as a hero. If the Kaiju does appear in the series, then it might also bring Peacemaker together with the Justice Gang as they fight the monster together.
Another fan commented,
“Well, they were shooting PM while shooting Superman. It's possible they may have wanted to get some scenes with the Kaiju while he was still available on the set. I hear his contract included the possibility of 6 movies and a video game and that his trailer had to be at least the same size as Godzilla's.”

Well, it is true that James Gunn was simultaneously filming for both Superman and Peacemaker Season 2. Hence, there is a high possibility that the Kaiju scene can coincide in both the movie and the series. If that happens, then it would definitely be a great moment for the series.
One fan pointed out that, as the Kaiju dies in Superman, the possibility of seeing it in Peacemaker Season 2 is slim. The fan’s comment reads,
“You mean the one that died before this season began? Nah” Another fan added, “No one said it had to be alive to be in the show.”

The speculations about the addition of the Kaiju in the series truly make us eager to know what comes next in the series. The fact that the fans are so engrossed in the details is a testament to the storytelling and the team behind the series and the movie.
