“Let’s Hope You’re Not Too Late”
The end of the SDCC 2017 trailer for Justice League produced one of the most-discussed moments of the movie’s marketing campaign. The clip showed Jeremy Irons’ Alfred being disturbed in the Batcave by an unseen individual (who’s powerful enough to shake the surroundings when they arrive). Alfred, clearly taken aback to see them, comments: “They said you’d come. Let’s hope you’re not too late.”
The scene sparked numerous theories about who this extra player could be – the main two contenders were Green Lantern and Superman. When fans went into the movie looking to find out the answer, though, the scene was not included. Comments from an insider on the production have revealed that it had already been cut from the film before it was featured in the trailer, but it still begs the question: Who was Alfred talking to?
We’re guessing it was Supes. Presumably after he leaves Lois at the Kent farm, Clark goes to Alfred to find out where the League are, and he directs the Man of Steel to the big fight in Russia.
