Along with the WWE Universe, John Cena has become a household name in Hollywood these days, mostly due to her Peacemaker character with the DC Universe. One of the largest production houses in the Hollywood movie industry will deliver Superman this weekend, reportedly featuring the top WWE Superstar in a brief role.

According to the reports of MovieWeb, John Cena’s Peacemaker will be a part of the DCEU. The platform reports that Peacemaker, AKA Christopher Smith, will appear on a television during the film, trash-talking David Cornswet’s Superman. It means that the WWE Superstar won’t physically appear in the film, but rather, his Peacemaker character will be shown.

Season 2 of Peacemaker is also in the pipeline with John Cena in the lead, which is set to premiere on August 21 on HBO Max. As for Superman, it features a cast including David Corenswet (Superman/Clark Kent), Rachel Brosnahan (Lois Lane), and Nicholas Hoult (Lex Luthor) in what appears to be a fresh take from the iconic Man of Steel edition in the last decade.
