Taking to Twitter, director James Gunn officially announced that filming has started on the upcoming The Suicide Squad spinoff series while hinting at his excitement for the project which he originally wrote “for fun.”

While plot details are being kept under wraps, we do know the Peacemaker series will run for eight episodes and will be an action-adventure comedy that will focus on the origins of Peacemaker, “a man who believes in peace at any cost, no matter how many people he has to kill to get it.”
The series will star John Cena alongside Lochlyn Munro, Chukwudi Iwuji, Annie Chang, Christopher Heyerdahl, Danielle Brooks, Robert Patrick, Jennifer Holland, Chris Conrad, and Steve Agee.
