Superman: How Many Post-Credits Scenes Are in DCU Movie?
Wondering how many post-credits scenes are in ? As the first chapter of James Gunn's new DC Universe lands in theaters, fans are eager to know if it sets up what's next. With a fresh take on the iconic hero, the film also hints at the future of the DCU beyond its main story. Here's how many scenes to expect after the credits roll. James Gunn's Superman (2025) includes two post-credits scenes. The film follows the tradition of modern superhero storytelling by featuring both a mid-credits and a post-credits scene. These scenes appear after the film's 130-minute runtime. Post-credits scenes are now a staple in comic book films. They often tease future stories or add extra moments of levity. Superman marks the first entry in DC Studios' new universe. It also begins DCU's Chapter One: Gods and Monsters. The content of both scenes is still unknown. However, early viewers and critics have confirmed their presence. The film premiered on July 7, 2025, at the TCL Chinese Theater. It opens in U.S. theaters on July 11, 2025. Written and directed by James Gunn, Superman stars David Corenswet as Clark Kent/Superman and Rachel Brosnahan as Lois Lane. The cast also includes Nicholas Hoult as Lex Luthor, Edi Gathegi, Anthony Carrigan, Nathan Fillion, and Isabela Merced. Gunn began developing the film in 2022 and filming commenced in early 2024, wrapping in July. The film draws inspiration from the All-Star Superman comic series by Grant Morrison and Frank Quitely. The production team filmed Superman primarily at Trilith Studios in Georgia, with additional scenes shot in Ohio and Svalbard, Norway. DC Studios released it as their first feature film, with Peter Safran and Lars P. Winther serving as co-producers. James Gunn described the reboot as presenting 'a Superman who's driven by compassion and an inherent belief in the goodness of humankind.' The new film launches a reimagined continuity for DC's cinematic future, distinguishing itself from the previous DCEU timeline.

Egypt approves EGP 85 bln budget amendment to cover rising interest costs - Economy
Egypt's House of Representatives approved on Sunday a government-proposed amendment to the state budget for the 2024/25 fiscal year, adding EGP 85 billion in supplementary spending to cover rising interest payments. The revision is in response to the depreciation of the Egyptian pound and ongoing economic and geopolitical pressures, which have increased both domestic and external debt servicing costs. The additional funds will be allocated under Chapter Three of the budget, which covers interest payments. To offset the expenditure, an equivalent EGP 85 billion will be added to projected revenues under Chapter One (Taxes), according to the draft law passed by parliament. The amendment also requires changes to the treasury's legal budget schedules for the fiscal year, which ends on Monday, 30 June. A report from the parliamentary budget committee noted that when the 2024/25 budget was drafted — and passed under Law No. 88 of 2024 — the government aimed for a fiscal deficit of 7.3 percent of GDP and a primary surplus of 3.5 percent, in line with its debt-reduction targets.

Diner blamed ‘runaway chocolate truffle' after restaurant slip
A home counties restaurant with a 'field to fork' philosophy of fine dining was sued for £100,000 after a customer claimed to have slipped on a 'runaway truffle'. Rosina Malik told a judge that she twisted her ankle and broke her right wrist after falling at Chapter One, a Michelin Guide-listed restaurant on the London–Kent border that advertised itself as being committed to 'sustainability' to the point of having beehives on its roof. The 62-year-old diner claimed that at the end of her meal at the restaurant on Farnborough Common, she stood to adjust her dress and then slipped on a caramel-filled chocolate truffle, which had been 'dropped but not retrieved' by a waiter. Malik, from Croydon, south London, sued the restaurant's owners, Simply Chapters, for up to £100,000 in damages over the effects of the incident in 2020. Lawyers for the restaurant did not dispute that a truffle was dropped but they said managers denied liability, insisting that Malik had not actually stepped on it. A judge at Central London county court has backed the company, finding that Malik's right shoe had 'no contact' with the truffle, meaning she was not entitled to compensation At the court hearing, Malik argued that she was left 'in shock' after her fall, which resulted in painful injuries to her ankle and wrist. The truffle was said to have been among a selection offered to her by a waiter that she and her companions decided to take away. But one truffle was said to have fallen while being transferred to a box, with Malik telling the court it rolled off the table and that she subsequently trod on it. Malik said: 'As I stood up straight and tried to fix my dress, my feet started to slip and just gave way under me.' She said that as she rose from the table, she had assumed the waiter had retrieved the truffle and that it was no longer a risk. 'If the waiter knew it was there, he should have brought it to my attention,' Malik said. In his ruling, Judge Nigel Gerald noted that immediately after Malik had fallen, it was assumed that she had slipped on the truffle as it was found on the floor — and some of the chocolate remains were also on the sole of her shoe. However, managers argued that an assessment of the restaurant's CCTV video showed there had been no point where Malik stood on the truffle. Juliet Stevenson, for the restaurant, argued that Malik had fallen after her right ankle 'inverted' and she tripped over, and that the 'runaway truffle' was nothing to do with the fall. The barrister suggested several possibilities for Malik's loss of balance, including the fact that she had consumed up to three glasses of wine, a 'somewhat slippery floor', fatigue at the end of the day and wearing high heels 'no matter how experienced the wearer'. Stevenson added: 'The fact is that people do on occasion lose their balance without clear cause.' The judge ruled that the video did not show any contact between Malik's foot and the truffle. He explained that sticky caramel likely came to be on the sole of her shoe 'after the accident and before her shoes were removed'.
