Man of Steel
According to conductor Zack Snyder , an unfastened Kryptonian seedpod inMan of Steelwasn’t mean to limit up Supergirl in the DCEU . A polar scene of 2013 ’s Superman picture show pick up Henry Cavill ’s Clark Kent enter a Kryptonian spaceship . While on board the ship , Clark finds out the truth of his foreign heritage . For age , though , one of the big talk points of the episode is an open pod that can be check in the backcloth .
The presence of the pod suggests that Superman is n’t the only survivor of Krypton in the DCEU . This would naturally taper to Clark Kent ’s cousin , Kara Zor - El , otherwise cognize as Supergirl , being apart of the existence . However , the true statement is that the cod was n’t a hint pointing to Supergirl , but rather something ( or someone ) else entirely .

Zack Snyder was latterly ask about the pod , because of the write up that the DCEU isplanning aSupergirlfilm . Snyder did n’t break what the cod was supposed to suggest at but he was emphatic about itnotbeing a Supergirl hint . " The opened fuel pod was something more , " the managing director explain ( viaComicBook ) . Snyder ’s answer is frustratingly obscure but it does make well-defined that the pod was more than a harmless Easter Egg .
The specifics are something that is love only to Snyder and anyone who worked closely onMan of Steel , but some educated guesses can be made . There have been rumors for years that Superman villainBrainiac was suppose to look inMan of Steel 2 . It ’s conceivable that the DCEU ’s Brainiac could ’ve stowed away on the Kryptonian ship to get to Earth and the open pod was suppose to set up his reaching . If not Brainiac , then there are other Superman role who have been known to move around by alien pod . The most notable among them isDaxamite Mon - El , who was a recur grapheme in The CW’sSupergirlTV serial .
If Warner Bros. does move forrader with aSupergirlmovie , the DCEU can well retrofit Kara into the open pod . It would take a piece of exposition to cover how Supergirl was on Earth ( before Superman ) and still did n’t participate in the events ofMan of Steel , Batman v. Superman , orJustice League . However , this is no big an matter for the DCEU thanWonder char 1984explaining why Diana go away from the world and howSteve Trevor is back from the all in . It ’s only a pocket-size persistence issue . So , regardless of what Zack Snyder intended for theMan of Steelpod , if it mean anything now , it ’s probably Supergirl .
