According to Screentime, the Superman (2025) movie and the second season of Peacemaker are currently dominating viewership on HBO Max. Across all regions where the streaming platform is available, both titles have claimed the top spots — Superman leads in films, while Peacemaker reigns among TV series.
Both productions are part of the DC Universe (DCU), led by James Gunn, who also serves as writer and director for both projects. This marks a major success for Gunn, as the strong audience response reflects the growing interest in his creative direction for the DCU.
A key factor behind this success is the interconnected storytelling: Peacemaker Season 2 takes place three months after the events of Superman (2025), and iconic characters like Lex Luthor appear in both titles, creating a seamless cinematic link between them.
For now, the DCU continues its gradual rollout, featuring projects like Superman, Peacemaker, and Creature Commandos. Fans are eagerly awaiting upcoming releases such as Lanterns, Supergirl, and Man of Tomorrow, which are expected to expand the DCU even further.
The Peacemaker Season 2 finale will air next Thursday, October 9, 2025, at 9 pm ET/6 pm PT, exclusively on HBO Max.
