10 Man Of Steel Easter Eggs That Will Mean Something In Future DC Movies

8. Aquaman Saves Clark Kent

There was a scene early in the movie in which Clark Kent saved a load of people on an oil rig after there was an explosion on-site. He made sure the workers there got to safety before holding up a large part of the rig to prevent it falling on a helicopter that was taking the workers to safety. The rig in question was owned by Merrevale Oil - a company that has clashed with a certain Aquaman because of their off-shore activities in the comic books. Moreover, when an explosion sent Clark into the water in Man Of Steel, it seemed as though a pair of whales guided him to the surface. The fact that the company is a rival of Aquaman's and that he could have directed the whales to save Clark obviously pointed to his now confirmed future appearance (Jason Momoa is playing the aquatic hero).
