Peacemaker Season 2 Episode 7 Trailer Ignites Explosive Family Showdown: Chris Takes on His Brother and Dad
Peacemaker Season 2 Episode 7’s promo pits Chris against his brother and his dad, cranking the alternate-reality chaos and splintered loyalties to a breaking point. After Ignorance Is Chris, Keith’s role looms as the big question, while Adebayo’s frantic flight from an Earth-X mob leaves the team reeling.
Peacemaker just dropped the promo for Season 2, Episode 7, and it points the camera straight at Keith. Yes, that Keith. The show has been steadily cranking up the weird with alt-realities, split allegiances, and big, ugly ideology clashes, and this new footage suggests Chris is about to deal with some very personal fallout.
The trailer: Keith steps into the spotlight
Released on September 26, 2025, the Episode 7 promo teases Peacemaker wading into fresh trouble with his brother. The clip ties Keith into a larger scheme and stirs up a lot of second-guessing about who did what and why. The vibe is very much: everything is on fire, and somehow the fire has questions.
Where Episode 6 left everyone
Episode 7 picks up right after Episode 6, "Ignorance Is Chris." Quick refresher, because that hour was a lot:
- Chris realized he was on Earth-X, an alternate reality run by fascists and conspicuously missing people of color.
- Adebayo was chased by a hostile crowd.
- A.R.G.U.S. hauled Harcourt in.
- Vigilante ran into an extremist version of himself.
- Economos confronted Auggie Smith, making the team drama even messier.
Inside baseball: the DCU handoff is happening
Episode 6 also gave us Nicholas Hoult popping in as Lex Luthor, plugging Peacemaker directly into the bigger DCU machine. Flag Sr. sought Lex out at Belle Reve for a crash course in dimensional travel, which is not exactly a casual ask. That scene is there for a reason: it sets up threads for "Man of Tomorrow." James Gunn has already confirmed Season 2 leads straight into that Superman film, which means Episodes 7 and 8 are the bridge everyone will be dissecting later.
When to watch, and who is in the mix
Max drops Episode 7 on October 2, 2025, with the season finale landing October 9, 2025. New episodes hit every Thursday. The core cast remains John Cena as Peacemaker, Freddie Stroma as Vigilante, Danielle Brooks as Adebayo, Jennifer Holland as Harcourt, Steve Agee as Economos, and Robert Patrick as Auggie Smith.
Bottom line: the promo says Keith is not a footnote, Earth-X is only getting meaner, and the next two episodes are doing double duty as both season endgame and DCU connective tissue. Buckle up.
