Superman received rave reviews and positive fan reactions after its July 11, 2025, release. With a strong main cast — David Corenswet (Superman/Clark Kent), Rachel Brosnahan (Lois Lane) and Nicholas Hoult (Lex Author) — the DC Universe movie took over the summer. And with most modern superhero films are the post-credits scenes. So, what exactly happens after Superman‘s end-credits roll, and do they set the stage for the future of the DCU?
News47.us has a breakdown of the end-credits scenes below!
Superman has two end-credits scenes. The first plays out after the main credits roll, and the second one plays after the full credits roll.
Fans agree that the mid-credits scene in Superman is probably the cutest one of the two. Viewers see Superman and the dog, Krypto, seemingly sitting on the Moon, looking back at Earth. Crypto leans on the hero’s shoulder, proving how the canine — and everybody — can rely on Superman’s protection.
The mid-credits scene is a sweet representation of Superman’s oath to protect Earth and everyone on it.
Superman‘s post-credits scene is a brief, witty moment between the titular hero and Mister Terrific, who helped him earlier in the film to close the portal that Lex Luthor activated. The portal tore Metropolis in two, and Mister Terrific was the one to re-stitch the two halves of the city.
After the final credits roll, viewers watch as Superman and Mister Terrific look at a Metropolis building that is visibly crooked after their work against Luthor. Once Superman points out the flaw in the structure, the perfectionist Terrific is infuriated that he couldn’t achieve flawlessness. So, he storms out of frame, kicking a rock on his way out, and Superman realizes he probably shouldn’t have acknowledged the misalignment while calling himself a real “jerk.”
