Does Superman 2025 have a post-credits scene and does it set up a sequel?
Superman has finally landed in theatres to the delight of fans across the Saved The James Gunn-directed superhero movie sees a new Man of Steel (David Corenswet) take on the balding baddie Lex Luthor (Nicholas Hoult), who has a sinister plot to take down Superman. Luckily for the Man of Tomorrow, he's not facing Luthor alone, and his friends Lois Lane (Rachel Brosnahan), and Jimmy Olsen (Skyler Gisondo), along with the Justice Gang, are there to back him up. The new movie has proved a hit with critics and fans alike. At the time of writing, Superman has a Rotten Tomatoes critics score of 82% (although our own Tori Brazier has some thoughts on that) and an audience score of 94%. Perhaps unsurprisingly, then the film is tracking for an impressive opening with box office experts predicting it'll soar past the $100 million mark. Of course, if you're thinking of watching the film, you'll likely have one big question: 'Does Superman 2025 have a post-credit scene?' To view this video please enable JavaScript, and consider upgrading to a web browser that supports HTML5 video Yes, Superman 2025 has two post-credit scenes. Warning spoilers ahead! The first is a short scene of Superman and his powerful pooch Krypto sitting on the Moon catching their breath after the events of the film. There's no dialogue, it's literally just Clark and his dog taking in the beauty of the Earth. Meanwhile, the second scene has a bit more going on. This fun clip shows Superman and Mr Terrific (Edi Gathegi) examining a crack in a building. As the pair of superheroes stare at it, Clark points out to his colleague that when he glued reality back together (Lex ripped a hole in our dimension earlier in the film) he was off by an inch. As a result, the building is ever so slightly out of place. A furious Mr Terrific then points out that he was busy saving reality and storms off as an embarrassed Superman apologises, admitting 'he can be a real jerk sometimes.' No, the Superman post-credit scenes don't set up Superman 2. However, the film does contain a few references that hint at the DCU movies yet to come. The biggest sequel hook comes at the end of the film, but before the credits, when a drunk Supergirl (Milly Alcock) turns up to pick up Krypto. Work is already underway on the Supergirl movie which is set for release on June 26, 2026. Superman 2 has not been officially announced but there are signs that Warner Bros and James Gunn are working on a follow-up of some kind. More Trending David Corenswet admitted to Vanity Fair, 'I'm already under contract for a sequel.' Lifelong Superman fan and Deputy TV editor Tom Percival shares his thoughts… James Gunn's Superman is a film with its heart in the right place. While it's a bit of a mess at times – both visually and narratively – it nails the optimistic, ever so slightly corny, spirit of the character and it's clear from all the zany ideas that have been crammed in that James is massive a fan of the comics. Arguably, though, the film's secret weapon is its cast. David, Rachel and Nicholas are sensational as the core trio. Meanwhile, Edi Gathegi steals every scene he's in as the aptly named Mr Terrific. If the rest of the DCU is as good as this film then its future looks s uper . Meanwhile, James Gunn explained to Entertainment Weekly that he's working on a follow-up to the film but said it's not a straightforward sequel. It seems likely then that we'll see Corenswet's Superman again but perhaps not in a film called Superman 2. Superman is in theaters now. Got a story?
