White Rabbit Joins DCU as Peacemaker Season 2 Villain

by

An obscure adversary of Batman is set to make an appearance in the DC Universe, as actress Brey Noelle has announced her role in the upcoming Season 2 of “Peacemaker.” Although Season 1 of “Peacemaker” aired in 2022 and initially fell under the DCEU umbrella, the second season of this popular series will now be set within James Gunn’s new DCU and is scheduled to premiere in August 2025, a month following the airing of “Superman.” Despite “Peacemaker” being positioned on the periphery of the DC Universe, it has a knack for showcasing lesser-known superheroes and villains. The second season promises to introduce a fresh face in Batman’s rogues gallery – but don’t count on seeing the Court of Owls.

According to IMDb, Brey Noelle is set to portray the DC villain White Rabbit in Season 2 of Peacemaker. Although IMDb listings aren’t always accurate, Noelle herself announced the role on her Instagram stories. The account Gunnverse shared a post welcoming Noelle to the DC Universe, and she responded with gratitude and emojis. Additionally, on another story about the news, she posted three hearts.

Noelle boasts a few appearances on TV shows, such as minor roles in “Secret Life of a Dominatrix” and “Crazy Neighborhood Moms.” However, she is chiefly recognized for her singing talents. A taste of her music can be heard on Spotify. At the moment, she is scheduled to appear only in one episode of “Peacemaker” Season 2, which happens to be the opening episode. This might suggest a minor part in the series, either as an adversary of Peacemaker’s team that’s easily dealt with or possibly a humorous cameo role like Calendar Man in “The Suicide Squad.

Who is White Rabbit, and What is Her Role in ‘Peacemaker?’

In a twist of events, the iconic character known as White Rabbit first appeared in ‘Adventures of Superman’ issue 500 back in 1993. Yet, it was a revamped version of this rabbit that stole the spotlight. This version made its debut in DC Comics’ ‘Batman: The Dark Knight’ Volume 2, issue 1, which hit shelves in November 2011. This fresh take on the character was brought to life by the creative minds of David Finch and Paul Jenkins as part of DC’s New 52 initiative. This particular version is named Jaina Hudson, a unique blend of American and Indian heritage. Born from an American diplomat father and an Indian Bollywood actress mother, Jaina possesses a fascinating power: she can split into two separate entities, one being herself and the other her White Rabbit alter ego, who sports white skin and hair. It’s essential to note that Jaina and White Rabbit are two unique individuals, each with their own thoughts and perspectives. Intriguingly, Noelle might be portraying the White Rabbit persona, while another actor could potentially step into the shoes of Jaina Hudson if her character is indeed part of the storyline.

The White Rabbit character aligns perfectly with the unique, offbeat vibe of the Peacemaker series, which delves into lesser-known DC characters to craft its narrative. Season 1 introduced Peacemaker, Vigilante, Judomaster, and the infamous racist villain, White Dragon. In Season 2 of Peacemaker, fans can anticipate the arrival of Sasha Bordeaux, played by Sol Rodríguez (Star Trek: Picard), a character often linked to Batman. A cryptic image hints at the possibility that Apache Chief, a hero from the Super Friends animated series, may make an appearance in Season 2. Additionally, Frank Grillo will reprise his role as Rick Flag Sr., following his appearances in Creature Commandos and Superman. Despite the three-year gap since Season 1, if Season 2 lives up to its predecessor’s quality, it promises to be a worthwhile wait.
