The new DC Universe is obviously very similar to the DC Extended Universe, but it also has its fair share of differences. The new trailer for James Gunn’s Superman, as well as the recent trailer for Peacemaker Season 2, have revealed that the Justice League in this universe are actually called the “Justice Gang,” and that they work for Max Lord (now played by Gunn’s brother Sean Gunn, instead of Pedro Pascal in the DCEU). This arrangement is very similar to the one in the beloved Justice League and Justice League International comic book series of the 1980s by Keith Giffen, J.M. DeMatteis, and Kevin Maguire.
That’s just one of the many Easter eggs, little details, and hidden DC secrets in the new Superman trailer. In our latest DC video, we’ll explain them all, including which three Superman comics this movie is most directly drawn from, contrast this continuity of Gunn’s Superman with the Christopher Reeve films, and the tiny shoutout to Max Lord that’s hidden in the background of one shot. Watch our full breakdown of the new Superman trailer below:
