HBO Highlights the Peacemaker Cast With Character Posters

In just under a month now, Christopher Smith, a.k.a. the Peacemaker, will get his second chance at making peace by waging war. But this time, it won’t just be as a one-man wrecking crew. The massive meathead portrayed by John Cena may no longer have a Suicide Squad, but he does have a back-up team. And another thoroughly dubious costumed super-partner in Vigilante, who heals quickly.

To get fans used to learning the Peacemaker cast of characters’ names and faces, HBO today released several character posters across its international social media channels. So in some cases, these are posters for El Pacificador. But whatever one calls the protagonist, his language of excessive violence is universal. As, indeed, will be the inevitable jokes about not seeing Cena on the poster.

In addition to the title character whose actor describes him as the “world’s biggest douchebag,” Steve Agee’s John Economos and Jennifer Holland’s Emilia Harcourt return from The Suicide Squad. Joining them, we will see Freddie Stroma as Vigilante, Chukwudi Iwuji as Clemson Murn, and Danielle Brooks as Leota Adebayo. Rounding out the Peacemaker cast, of course, is Eagly, the all-American bald eagle who embodies Peacemaker’s love of superficial symbolism. Not given a poster: Robert Patrick, as our antihero’s hardass dad Auggie.

Check them all out in the gallery below. Which one lo0ks like your favorite so far, and why is it Eagly? Let us know in comments.
