Viola Davis may headline HBO Max's Peacemaker spinoff series | Digital Trends

Earlier this year, Peacemaker was such a big hit for HBO Max that it earned an early second season renewal. Now, the Peacemaker spinoff series is coming into focus. Deadline is reporting that Viola Davis is in negotiations to executive produce and star in the currently untitled show. If Davis signs on, she will reprise her role as Amanda Waller from The Suicide Squad films.

Unless the proposed series is going to be a political thriller set with the DCEU, it’s likely there will be some action component to the show. It would actually make more sense to shift the Suicide Squad franchise to HBO Max, since the previous film didn’t light up the box office last summer. That said, The Suicide Squad and Peacemaker have both performed very well for HBO Max, which suggests that television is where they belong.
