Sci-fi show on HBO gets revealed with an adult-rated trailer prior to its return

Get ready, "Peacemaker" enthusiasts! The much-anticipated second season of the R-rated superhero series is set to premiere on HBO Max in the US and Sky or Now in the UK on August 21.

If you're a fan of shows with explicit language, violence, and adult themes, you'll be thrilled to know that the new season of "Peacemaker" will not disappoint. The series, which has already made a name for itself with its profane dialogue, violent action, and dark humor, will continue to push boundaries.

The upcoming season is part of the wider DC cinematic universe and sees John Cena reprising his role as the titular character, Peacemaker. This time around, Peacemaker finds himself in a rut, trying to have a good time without responsibilities, but trouble seems to find him nonetheless.

Rick Flag Sr., played by Danielle Brooks, is out for vengeance against Peacemaker, and he's not holding back. Flag is hunting him down with significant resources, making for an exciting cat-and-mouse chase.

One thing to note is that not all events from the last season of "Peacemaker" will be considered canonical. James Gunn, the showrunner for the series, has clarified this point.

"Peacemaker" is not for the faint-hearted, and if you're looking for shows similar to it, HBO Max offers a few options. "House of the Dragon," a prequel to "Game of Thrones," and "Westworld," a sci-fi series known for its disturbing, violent, and sexual content, are both worth checking out. "Spartacus," another explicit series, is also available on Amazon Prime.

For those in the UK, "Peacemaker" is available on Sky or Now via an entertainment pass, along with other mature titles from HBO Max like "House of the Dragon" and "Westworld," if they become available. For a more dramatic, less profane psychological thriller, "Lurker" might be a good alternative.

In a surprising twist, Peacemaker has access to a device that allows him to step through portals and access the multiverse. This could open up a whole new world of possibilities for the series, making the second season even more intriguing.

The launch trailer for "Peacemaker" Season 2 is labeled as a "redband" trailer, indicating it contains explicit content. So, get ready for another wild ride with your favourite anti-hero!
