Christopher Nolan Says He Was Misquoted in Piece Claiming He Rejected Marvel Style Post-Credits Scene for 'Man of Steel'

Post-credits scenes have become a staple in the Marvel Cinematic Universe in the last six years, and fans have come to expect and anticipate what's coming after the credits roll. Warner Bros. and DC reportedly tried to do something similar with Man of Steel last year, but Christopher Nolan reportedly shot down the idea.

The Guardian published an in-depth piece on the man behind The Dark Knight trilogy and Interstellar, and the site mentioned WB tried to convince director Zack Snyder and Nolan, who produced the film, to attach a post-credits tag to the Superman movie in order to set up more films in the future. According to The Guadian, Nolan simply responded, "A real movie wouldn't do that."

However, Nolan made a statement to Buzzfeed that he was misquoted in the Guardian piece. "I would never say someone else's film isn't 'a real film.' The quote is inaccurate," he said.

And speaking of the sequel, Comic Book Movie reports photographer Gregory Zonsius has sent a photo of Ben Affleck as Bruce Wayne on set of Batman v. Superman: Dawn of Justice to SupermanHomepage.com. According to the report, Affleck was on set in Yorkville, Illinois, the same place where Jonathan Kent (Kevin Costner) was buried in Man of Steel.

Of course, this begs the question of why Bruce is there. Is he paying respects to Pa Kent or someone else? The photographer also claimed Henry Cavill was on set, and another eyewitness said Diane Lane (Martha Kent), Laurence Fishburne (Perry White) and Amy Adams (Lois Lane) were on set.
