Will There Be A ‘Peacemaker’ Season 3? The Answer Is Complicated

HBO Max has not provided any updates on a third season despite Season 2 ending with unresolved plotlines involving alternate dimensions and imprisonment.

  • On Oct. 7, HBO Max told USA TODAY it had no information to share about a Season 3 as Season 2 wrapped, leaving the show's future uncertain.
  • After alternating between worlds all season, Smith's finale fate left questions about continuation, with Season 1 premiering Jan. 13, 2022 and Season 2 releasing Aug. 21, 2024 and ending with him imprisoned.
  • Plot reveals in the finale include Earth-2 under Nazi rule and alternate versions of Auggie Smith and Keith Smith, while Chris Smith spends the season alternating between two worlds and chooses to remain in the alternate universe.
  • The finale and James Gunn's comments position Peacemaker material for spin-offs like Checkmate and DCU tie-ins including Man of Tomorrow.
  • Gunn has cautioned that a traditional Season 3 isn't imminent, with fans criticizing missing cameos and HBO Max's Sarah Aubrey noting Peacemaker's franchise value within the DCU.
