It feels like an eternity since James Gunn's latest DC project, Peacemaker, hit screens in the US, but now UK fans are finally getting to watch the acclaimed series.
Gunn has announced that all eight episodes of the DC series, a spin-off from The Suicide Squad, will be available exclusively on Sky Max and streaming service NOW from 22nd March.
The filmmaker took to Twitter to celebrate the news, announcing: "The wait is over UK. We've heard you and I'm thrilled to announce #Peacemaker will finally be streaming from March 2022 on @SkyTV and @NOW".
Peacemaker is set after 2021's The Suicide Squad, and explores the origins of John Cena's vainglorious antihero who believes in peace at any cost – no matter how many people he has to kill to get it.
The Suicide Squad's post-credits scene revealed that Peacemaker had survived being shot by Idris Elba's Bloodsport and was needed for a new assignment.
