Does Superman 2025 Mention Batman? Easter Egg Explained

Is it possible that Superman 2025 makes a reference to Batman? As the movie prepares for its nationwide release on July 11, many DC fans have been speculating whether Batman, and more specifically Robert Pattinson’s portrayal of Batman, might make a cameo in director James Gunn’s Superman film. This theory originated from a track in the movie’s soundtrack that bears a striking resemblance to the theme for The Batman. So, let’s explore if Batman appears at all in Superman 2025 or if there are any hidden Batman references that fans should keep an eye out for.

What is the Batman easter egg in Superman 2025?

In Superman 2025, though Batman himself doesn’t show up, there is a subtle nod or reference to Batman called an Easter Egg, which appears as a street sign displaying “Gotham City.

Based on numerous Reddit users who claim to have watched the film, there’s a brief scene showing a highway sign pointing towards Gotham City as Metropolis residents flee their city. One user on forum X also confirmed this hidden reference in the movie. The fast-paced sequence, which includes a portal tearing open, makes it simple to overlook the sign. Interestingly, this subtle Easter Egg comes as a surprise because initial rumors suggested that the film had no Batman connections whatsoever.

In Superman 2025, though Batman isn’t explicitly named, there appears to be a hint that Gunn’s revamped DCU includes Gotham City, the city of The Dark Knight. Moreover, it implies that Metropolis and Gotham City are relatively close, allowing for road trips between them during emergency evacuation scenarios.

In summary, despite the Easter egg in the first Batman film suggesting a potential connection with Superman 2025, director James Gunn has stated that there are currently no plans to incorporate Pattinson’s Batman into the revamped DC Universe. The script for The Batman Part II, penned by Matt Reeves and Mattson Tomlin, has already been handed in, and this sequel stands independently from the new DCU.

It seems that David Corenswet’s Superman won’t be teaming up with Batman soon, but the appearance of Hawkgirl, Green Lantern, and Mister Terrific (justice gang) in the movie could pave the way for The Dark Knight’s eventual collaboration.
