Trivia: This is just the second film to feature the character of Matt Murdock aka Daredevil, and both films happen to feature Jon Favreau in a supporting role. According to Charlie Cox, this film had a deleted scene in which Happy Hogan is giving a deposition and states his memory is a little foggy, a reference to Murdock's law partner, Foggy Nelson, whom Favreau played in 2003's Daredevil.

Trivia: SPOILER: The movie reveals that Indy and Marion's son, Mutt, was killed while serving in Vietnam. Shia LeBeouf, who played Mutt in Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull, has been vocal about his dissatisfaction with his performance in the film, much to the chagrin of both Harrison Ford and Steven Spielberg. That, coupled with the negative fan reception of his character/performance, are likely the reasons that LeBeouf did not return for this film.

The Flash (2023)

Trivia: SPOILER: After Barry returns to his timeline, he discovers Bruce Wayne looks different, as he is now portrayed by George Clooney instead of Ben Affleck. In addition to being a nod to Clooney's portrayal from Batman and Robin, this could also be a sly way of removing Affleck from the DCEU, as he became disinterested in continuing to portray the character after Justice League.
