Warning: MAJOR SPOILERS for the Peacemaker episode “Ignorance is Chris” are ahead!

A few weeks ago, I speculated that there was a dark secret being kept about that alternate universe in Peacemaker Season 2, as it seemed too good to be true. Well, I was correct, as it was revealed in “Ignorance is Christ,” which premiered tonight on the 2025 TV schedule, that this world is not all it’s cracked up to be. Actors Freddie Stroma and Danielle Brooks addressed that shocking truth while speaking with CinemaBlend about the HBO Max subscription-exclusive DC TV show, but to be frank, I was more surprised by a major character from this summer’s Superman who cameoed.

I wasn’t alone in noticing during “Another Rick Up My Sleeve” that there were only white people being shown as John Cena’s main version of Christoper Smith was out exploring this other universe. Well, not too long after Emilia Harcourt (the main one), John Economos, Adrian Chase and Leota Adebayo arrived in this dimension to bring their friend home, Adebayo went for a walk to clear her head. Sadly, she stuck out like a sore thumb, with an angry mob, including the now-late alternate Chris’ brother Keith, forming to chase after her because she’s Black.

00:00What would a second dimension vigilante in Adebayo look like?
00:05Mmm...
00:06I don't know if we can say...
00:09Well, one of us can say.
00:12She says she'll use it for after, I can't.
00:14Well, so here's another question then,
00:16because I have a feeling that that second dimension is...
00:19there's something off about it.
00:20Am I correct in assuming that it's not quite what it seems?
00:23Are we allowed to say? I don't want to...
00:25I mean, she said something.
00:26Yeah, I'm gonna...
00:27Yeah, there's something off.
00:29Something very off.
00:30I don't want to root for you either, though,
00:31because you're gonna watch it.
00:32I have a theory.
00:33Yeah, it's very off.
00:34I have a theory, just given.
00:35Do you want to run it by Academy Award nominee, Doctor...
00:38I would love to...
00:39Doctor?
00:40I'm gonna keep giving you more credit children.
00:42So just given what we know about Peacemaker's dad from season one
00:45being white supremacist,
00:47there's a lot of, like, Americana, 50s, whatever,
00:50going on in the second dimension.
00:52Somebody's a smart cookie.
00:53Thanks.
00:54So my theory is you're not in the second dimension.
00:56Do you know James Gunn?
00:59Oh, look at you, smarty pants.
01:01Do you know James Gunn?
01:03He likes to shake it up.
01:04Ooh, I'm excited.
01:05Ooh, ooh, I'm excited.
01:06Yeah.
01:13Oh.
