Peacemaker, the hit spin-off series from 2021 movie The Suicide Squad, has finally landed a UK release date.
Sky will offer all episodes of the show on March 22 on Sky Max, and it will also be available to stream via the service's NOW offering, as long as you've got an entertainment membership.
It means UK viewers finally have the chance to catch up on the show, which has already been confirmed for a second season on HBO Max.
Peacemaker first appeared as a character in James Gunn's 2021 blockbuster The Suicide Squad, and the series follows John Cena's Christopher Smith, a brutal, uncompromising, jingoistic killer who believes in achieving peace at any cost.
In the show, we meet Smith after the events of The Suicide Squad, as he's forced to join a mysterious black ops squad named A.R.G.U.S.. The squad's mission is a complex one– they're on a mission to identify and eliminate parasitic butterfly-like creatures who have taken over human bodies around the world.
Gunn wrote all eight episodes of Peacemaker and directed five. Starring alongside Cena are Danielle Brooks, Freddie Stroma, Chukwudi Iwuji, Jennifer Holland, Steve Agee and Robert Patrick.
