Recently, Corenswet posted a selfie with Cena on what seems to be the Peacemaker set. Fans began guessing that Superman was going to make an appearance in the latter half of the season. Speaking with GQ, Cena avoided any hints about Season 2 of Peacemaker. Instead, he talked about wanting to meet the new Superman. He shared, "I knew that they were finishing up filming Superman and I desperately wanted to meet David. I wanted to meet the new Superman and just lend my services, like, "Hey, man, your life is about to change and I've heard that you've been doing an incredible job. I want to thank you because if you suck, that means DC sucks, which means we got a bigger hole to dig out of. So thank you so much for giving this your all. As someone who has been far more exposed to the media than I have formal acting training, if I can help you in any way, please, here's my number, let me know."

He's an absolute class act, and James couldn't have made a better choice. I'm so glad everything went well [with Superman], because he had earned that. I don't use the word “deserve.” He has absolutely earned whatever success and future opportunities he's been given. I really wanted to meet Superman and offer my help and services in any way. And David is Superman. That's not something you take lightly."The second season of Peacemaker will end on October 8 on HBO Max and on October 9 on JioHotstar. Danielle Brooks, Freddie Stroma, Jennifer Holland, Steve Agee, Frank Grillo, and Robert Patrick are also part of the ensemble cast.
