The White Lotus star Lisa has shared a mysterious Instagram post that seems to be referencing something DC-related, and fans are going wild with speculation.
Lisa, who is one-fourth of the girl group Blackpink, is currently on tour – and, after donning some particularly superhero-esque outfits for her solo set, seemingly compared herself to Wonder Woman and Catwoman in her post, which is captioned "Keep scrolling" with an eyes emoji. Check it out below.
Now, that seems innocent enough, except the official DC account commented: "We're scrolling," complete with an eyes emoji, a black heart, a bat, and a star.
That's not the only account that has interacted with the post, either, with a HBO Max account and DC's official Asia account also commenting.
Of course, this doesn't necessarily mean Lisa is joining the DCU. Her music video for her single "FUTW" contained a Batman reference, since a version of ACE Chemicals appears, so it's possible she's simply a fan (and she's performing this song on tour, too, so the references make sense). But, people are running with the theories anyway.
One person has pointed out that Lisa has shared pictures featuring a cat phone case, potentially linking her to Catwoman.
"Lisa pulling up in a car that looks straight outta Batman's garage then hits us with a 'keep scrolling' and suddenly we've got Wonder Woman, Catwoman fan edit, AND that phone case?????????" says another fan. "And then she ended with this," points out someone else, with a video clip of Lisa wearing a Labubu-inspired cape, with trousers that appear to feature a woman with cat ears and a ball of yarn.
People are also speculating that Lisa could be teasing another DC character, though: Batgirl.
"Batgirl? Omg what is ittt!!!" asks another person. "LISA CASSANDRA CAIN INCOMING" says someone else – Cassandra Cain was also Batgirl in DC Comics. "Welcome back Batgirl," says another person. "OMGG THE BAT EMOJI??? SOMETHING BIG IS DEFINITELY COMING LISA AS BATWOMAN??" wonders someone else (Batgirl and Batwoman are two separate heroes in the DC universe).
While there are DCU Batman and Wonder Woman projects in the works, no casting has been announced for either, and all we know about Batman is that it will feature Damian Wayne's Robin.
The Wonder Woman movie just secured a writer, but James Gunn told us recently that there are no new updates to share on the Batman project, which is titled The Brave and the Bold.
Most likely, then, Lisa is just sharing the love for an iconic franchise. Maybe she'll be channelling another DC hero at the next tour stop?
The DCU's latest project, Superman, is in theaters now. You can keep up to date on everything else that's in store with our guide to all the upcoming DC movies and shows.

Billy Joel speaks out about rumors he's had DUIs in new documentary

The Piano Man is defending his reputation. In the newly released second part of the HBO documentary 'Billy Joel: And So It Goes,' the 76-year-old music icon responded to the longstanding rumor that he's gotten multiple DUIs over the years. 'You know, along with fame comes a lot of gossip, rumors. I didn't like the tabloid kind of press,' Joel said in the doc. 'For example, there's this rumor that I have all these DUIs. That never happened, but people keep repeating the myth: 'Oh, he's got so many DUIs.'' Advertisement 6 Billy Joel performs at Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas in Nov. 2024. Getty Images 'I never had a DUI,' he added, 'so f–k you.' Joel was first accused of drinking behind the wheel when he crashed a Mercedes-Benz in East Hampton, New York in June 2002. Less than a year later, he drove into a tree in Sag Harbor and had to be airlifted to a hospital. Advertisement 6 Billy Joel at Madison Square Garden in NYC in June 2023.

The rumors about Joel led to 'Saturday Night Live' referencing his alleged drunk driving in a 2004 sketch that featured Horatio Sanz, who played the singer, chugging a bottle of pineapple schnapps and crashing into several walls and mailboxes while driving a group of girls to a party. However, Joel has repeatedly denied that he's ever gotten a DUI. Advertisement 6 Billy Joel performs in Melbourne, Australia in Dec. 2022. WireImage 'I had gone through a breakup and was really broken up about it, and I decided, 'I'm drinking too much. I should go to rehab,'' Joel told The New York Times Magazine in 2013. 'But people made a connection, like, 'Oh, he went there because he was in a car accident from drinking.' No.' 'I never had a DUI in my life,' he stated. 'That's another fallacy. Look at the police records.' 6 Billy Joel on Father's Day 2025. billyjoel/Instagram Advertisement In his documentary, Joel called the press 'mean' and admitted that he doesn't always enjoy being in the spotlight. 'Having that much attention paid to you is not easy,' he said. In 2005, Joel entered rehab following what he called an 'ultimatum' from his then-wife, Katie Lee. He entered the Betty Ford Center for a stint, then temporarily stopped touring once his time at the center was over. 6 Billy Joel attends MSG Entertainment and Billy Joel special franchise announcement at Chase Square at Madison Square Garden.

Stephen King's 'It: Welcome to Derry' prequel for HBO gets first look

SAN DIEGO – Two hit 'It' movies told much of the epic story of Stephen King's seminal horror novel. Yet at 1,100-plus pages, there was still a lot left over for a TV series. Director Andy Muschietti teams again with his sister (and fellow producer) Barbara Muschietti for the prequel 'It: Welcome to Derry' (premiering in October on HBO and HBO Max). With a first season set in 1962, the show will plumb the tragic history of the cursed Maine town of Derry – told via interludes written by Losers Club historian Mike Hanlon in King's book – plus feature the return of that evil clown Pennywise (Bill Skarsgård). Join our Watch Party! Sign up to receive USA TODAY's movie and TV recommendations right in your inbox On Saturday, July 26, during a Comic-Con panel for 'Derry,' the Muschiettis premiered a new trailer, plus debuted the opening 10 minutes. A young boy gets caught sneaking into the movies and then tries to hitchhike out of Derry, too old to be sucking on a pacifier but needing it to calm himself. He's picked up by a seemingly ordinary family heading to Portland, but the kid quickly realizes they're headed back to Derry, these people are really weird, and the mom gives birth very graphically in the car to a demon baby with wings and two heads. 'The series is all like this,' Andy Muschietti warned afterward with a laugh. It was important to the team that even though the storytelling format changed, 'we still have the same level of intensity and scariness,' Barbara Muschietti said. Her brother added the show is actually more intense than the movies: 'We got away with a lot and that's the stuff you'll be excited about.' Andy Muschietti was 'exhausted but excited' after directing the films, he said, and always fantasized about doing the origin story of how It became Pennywise. Plus, there were historical moments from the book mentioned in the movie – the burning of the Black Spot juke joint, the Bradley Gang massacre, the Kitchener Ironworks explosion – that were the basis to what Muschietti wanted to explore with an 'It' show. King was excited about the show, plus it was his idea for the series to go back in time to hit the 27-year cycles where Pennywise is unleashed. While the first season takes place in 1962, 'Derry' could then move to 1935 and 1908 'in theory,' Andy Muschietti said. 'There's a reason why it goes backward and we can't tell you why.' The show's characters will connect with those from the movies. Mike's grandfather Leroy Hanlon (Jovan Adepo) is the main character of the first season, as he and wife Charlotte (Taylour Paige) move their family to Derry and quickly realize the place is seriously off. There are other parts of King canon as well: A Shawshank State Prison bus is seen in the trailer, and Dick Hallorann, a key character in 'The Shining' who has a small role in the 'It' novel, is a significant player in 'Derry' as played by Chris Chalk. 'One of the most fascinating things about the book is the cryptic factor,' Andy Muschietti said. 'You hear certain things, you get to the end of the book, but you don't know what It is. We're going to ruin all this. We're unveiling all these mysteries, but with very good taste.' And you can't have 'It' without Skarsgård, and his Pennywise is still quite unsettling. 'I got used to it. Barbie, not so much,' Andy Muschietti said. 'The things he brings to this show are incredible.' He says, ' 'Let's order some pizza,' and I'm like, 'I can't look at you,' ' Barbara Muschietti said. 'It's the eyes that get you.'
