Nobody is safe when it comes to surviving the DCU.
As a fervent admirer, I’m thrilled to share that my cherished DC Universe, under the dynamic leadership of James Gunn and Peter Safran, sprang to life in December 2024 with the highly-anticipated animated series, Creature Commandos. To my delight, a second season is already on its way! The momentum continued with the July 2025 release of Gunn’s epic Superman film, graced by the talented David Corenswet in the title role.
After Superman’s DCU project, the upcoming series is Season 2 of Peacemaker, featuring John Cena. Currently, the first three episodes of this second season can be streamed on HBO Max, with subsequent episodes being released every Thursday until the final episode airs on October 9, 2025.
What did James Gunn say about DCU characters being killed off?
In a recent conversation about upcoming DC Universe projects, Gunn was queried whether major figures like Harcourt, Economos, Eagle, Lois Lane, and Guy Gardner/Green Lantern could potentially meet their end, with no resuscitation through the multiverse.
“Sure,” Gunn answered. “These are stories. People die in stories.”
In the original statement, it’s pointed out that James Gunn isn’t afraid to eliminate major characters in his films, such as Groot and Yondu (played by Michael Rooker). While Groot was revived as Baby Groot following his death in the first Guardians of the Galaxy movie, Yondu met his end in Guardians of the Galaxy Volume 2.
In 2021’s The Suicide Squad, Joel Kinnaman’s character was killed by Christopher Smith portrayed by John Cena. Yet, due to the concept of the multiverse, Kinnaman will be returning to reprise his role in Peacemaker Season 2.
After the second season of Peacemaker, here are some upcoming DC Universe projects:
1. Craig Gillespie’s Supergirl, featuring Milly Alcock, is set to debut on June 26, 2026.
2. James Watkins’ Clayface movie is scheduled for release on September 11, 2026.
3. The television show Lanterns, which includes Nathan Fillion as Guy Gardner, is also expected in 2026.
4. The only other DCU film with a confirmed date is Man of Tomorrow, where Corenswet and Nicholas Hoult will reprise their roles as Superman and Lex Luthor.
