The Batman director Matt Reeves recently “broke the internet” by sharing some jaw-dropping photos of the Batmobile that Robert Pattinson’s version of the Dark Knight will drive around Gotham City. It’s a grounded take on the iconic vehicle, but one comic book fans have responded positively to. 

Recently, a user on Twitter claimed to have found a hidden Bat symbol on the Batmobile, and now The Batman concept artist Ash Thorp has confirmed that was an intentional addition. 

The fact Bruce Wayne and his loyal butler Alfred Pennyworth took the time to include an “Easter Egg” like this might be a little silly, but it’s a cool nod to both the comic books and the Batman mythos. Plus, Batman using bat imagery like this in his weapons and vehicles has been a staple of his adventures for years, so Reeves deserves a lot of credit for finding a way to include that here too.

Earlier today, former Disney CEO Bob Iger shared some new details and footage from a plethora of upcoming projects from the studio. Among them was The Falcon and The Winter Soldier (which is expected to arrive on Disney+ this August), and thanks to Laughing Place, we now have a description about what that first look footage contained! 

It reportedly kicked off with Bucky paying a visit to Zemo in some sort of state of the art prison and, in a typically villainous fashion, he tried to activate The Winter Soldier’s programming. That failed thanks to the work of T’Challa and his team of scientists in Wakanda, and during this conversation, Bucky reportedly mentions that someone has recreated the Super Soldier Serum. 

A clip was also shown of John Walker’s Captain America entering the stadium we saw in the sneak peek during the Super Bowl, but even more interesting is a “montage of action sequences included Zemo fighting in his iconic mask from the comics.”

Finally, it’s said that they “saw Bucky approach Sam Wilson and discussed that they’re not really friends. More like two guys who had a mutual friend who now need each other.” However, something tells us that by the time all is said and done in The Falcon and The Winter Soldier, these two could finally become firm friends and allies in the Marvel Cinematic Universe!

Either way, it sounds like a recent Reddit leak about the pilot episode was accurate based on this information, and the fact the Super Soldier Serum has finally been perfected could be a game-changer for this shared world…especially if Sam Wilson ultimately decides to take it.

What do you guys think?
