Justice League had no shortage of Easter Eggs including one that some fans thought might be a sly nod to DC Comic's fan-favorite thief, Catwoman. Now a new photo is giving a close up look at the would-be Selina Kyle.
Near the end of Justice League, literally during the final montage before they roll credits, there is a blink-and-you'll-miss it moment with a well-dressed woman in red decked out Audrey Hepburn style with big sunglasses being led away by police at Wonder Woman's museum. Then, Wonder Woman puts a cat statue into a box while a little girl with cat ears is also seen in the shot. All of the cat-themed references seemed to point to the lady in red being Selina Kyle, aka Catwoman but the sequence moved so fast it was hard to get a good look at the woman.
Enter actor Russell Balogh. Balogh, who is listed on IMDB as being a stunt double for Ben Affleck on Justice League, shared a photo on his Instagram account that shows himself with the lady in red and another man close up. The caption, however, is where things get really interesting.
"Just before we were foiled by The Wonder," Balogh wrote in the caption followed by an emoji of a woman. He also marked the photo with hashtags for Justice League, DC Comics, Wonder Woman, and Gal Gadot.
While the fan-found clues may have just been a case of fans seeing what they wanted to see, this photo seems to give a little more credence to the idea that the well-dressed woman in red was a nod to Catwoman, especially with Balogh hinting that Wonder Woman "foiled" their plans. And even though the character Easter Egg isn't necessarily an introduction for the character, Catwoman has been a hot topic of speculation in the DC fandom this year. Fans speculated previously that Baby Driver actress Eiza Gonzalez was being considered to play Catwoman in the upcoming Gotham City Sirens after DC Chief Geoff Johns followed her on Twitter, speculation that went into overdrive when Gotham City Sirens director David Ayer and DC Extended Universe actor Joe Manganiello followed suit.
As for that Justice League cameo, fans can judge for themselves. Justice League is in theaters now.
