James Gunn Sneaks Two Surprising Cameos into 'Superman: Legacy' — Did You Spot Them?

If you thought Superman: Legacy was just about the Man of Steel soaring solo, think again — James Gunn has slipped in two cheeky cameos from the previous DC universe that fans absolutely did not see coming. As CBM mentions, first up is Milly Alcock’s Supergirl, who’s set to take flight herself next summer but here shows up at the end of the film, not quite the picture-perfect cousin. Drunk and demanding her dog back from Superman? It’s clear these Kryptonian cousins have a frosty relationship, and we’re left itching to find out how that story will unfold in the next year.

Then there’s John Cena’s Peacemaker, a character who’s clearly survived the DCEU’s rocky past and is strutting confidently into the new DCU. His cameo? Not exactly face-to-face, but rather a TV appearance trash-talking Superman — exactly the snarky anti-hero we’ve come to love. While this doesn’t reveal what’s next for Peacemaker, Gunn’s message is clear: Peacemaker’s here to stay.

Fans are buzzing about whether this sets up that teased "really, really big" cameo in Peacemaker Season 2, perhaps with David Corenswet’s Superman returning the favour. Gunn spilled some exciting hints, promising a host of characters from Superman and beyond will appear this season, including a mega surprise cameo near the end.

It seems Gunn’s DCU isn’t just a fresh start; it’s a crafty nod to what came before — slipping old favourites through the cracks, keeping us guessing and very much hooked. So, who else do you think might pop up next? Drop your theories — this legacy is only just beginning.
