After The Suicide Squad hit theaters last year, fans were immediately enraptured by John Cena‘s breakout performance as the anti-hero Peacemaker — and so was James Gunn, the director of the movie (who’s also directed Marvel’s Guardians of the Galaxy movie series).
This quickly led to Cena getting his own HBO Max show titled Peacemaker which will give fans a chance to learn more about the character’s motives and follow him along on a gore-filled comedic journey, similar to what we loved about The Suicide Squad movie.
Excited to watch Peacemaker online when it premieres on HBO Max? Here’s everything you need to know about the latest HBO Max series.
Peacemaker on HBO Max: Release Date, Run Time, Episodes
Peacemaker made its debut on Thursday, January 13 with episodes available exclusively on HBO Max. New episodes were released weekly every Thursday and the series finale takes place on February 17th.
There are eight episodes total and each episode runs around 40 to 45 minutes, with episode times varying throughout the series.
How to Watch Peacemaker Online
Peacemaker airs exclusively on HBO Max, which means the only way to watch Peacemaker online is to get an HBO Max subscription, which will give you access to not only every Peacemaker episode as it releases, but also let you binge other DC Comics content like The Suicide Squad, Harley Quinn, Wonder Woman and more.
Buy HBO Max Subscription $7.99

If you want to stream Peacemaker in the U.K or in India, you’ll unfortunately have to wait for the show to become available in your country; Gunn says his team is actively working on it.
