So That Extra Footage Released After BATMAN V. SUPERMAN Was DC Films' Version of a Post Credits Scene
Remember back when BATMAN V. SUPERMAN: DAWN OF JUSTICE released in theaters on March 25 and then the following Monday, March 28, Warner Bros. uploaded a scene from the movie on YouTube? Remember how you probably thought to yourself, "Why didn't they just put this scene into the movie instead?"

It was a confusing move at first and in the months since, but director Zack Snyder has now revealed that that was his way of releasing a "post-credits scene" without having it in the end credits of the movie like Marvel films have done for so many years. So yeah... it was their version of a credits scene for BATMAN V. SUPERMAN.
“I kind thought, ‘Oh, that would be a cool after-credits sequence,’” Snyder said on the set of JUSTICE LEAGUE, via io9. “But then I was like, ‘I don’t know, can I do that?’ because Marvel kind of does that. ‘Is that a thing?’ So we were like, ‘Oh! Well, maybe there’s another way to do it.’”
If this is the normal way for Warner Bros. and DC Films to release their version of a post-credits scene moving forward, we can now guess that there will probably be a scene released online Monday August 8 after SUICIDE SQUAD releases stateside on August 5.
If you haven't been keeping track that is Steppenwolf, who has been confirmed as being a villain in JUSTICE LEAGUE, which releases on November 17, 2017.
