Superman Debut Delivers Two End-Credits Stingers Without Future DCU Teases

Drawing on his Marvel experience, James Gunn framed both stingers as self-contained bonuses that don’t hint at upcoming DCU projects.

Overview

  • The mid-credits scene shows Superman and his dog Krypto sitting on the moon admiring Earth’s sunrise.
  • The post-credits gag features Mr. Terrific and Superman sharing a light joke while inspecting a cracked building after the climax.
  • Neither stinger sets up any future DCU storylines, making them optional treats rather than narrative bridges.
  • Gunn cited his MCU work to explain his decision against using post-credits scenes to promise forthcoming projects.
  • Superman opened in theaters on July 11 as the inaugural entry in the James Gunn and Peter Safran reboot of the DC Universe.
