A New Rumored Mountain Dew Packaging Leak Has Batman & Catwoman Reveal

Publish date: 2024-05-05

A leaked promotional photo of the supposedly new Mountain Dew packaging reveals the characters and elements of the Batman franchise. 

The leaked post comes from DCEUPosts, a Twitter fan page dedicated to DC Universe. Fans have guessed that the post might be a bid by DC Films to advertise the upcoming Matt Reeve's The Batman movie, which is releasing on Oct. 1, 2021. 

I've never seen leaks for a soda company before...

But for those saying it's fake, this leaked along with other flavors of Mountain Dew that will be hitting the shelves in 2021. #TheBatman https://t.co/JknmAGpx9p — DC Universe (@DCEUPosts) August 5, 2020

Although the photos aren't directly advertising the Batman franchise, it seems as though the packaging of the bottles features subtle imagery and revelations that could be related to the upcoming movie.

In the picture, three bottles are seen place alongside one another. These bottles seem to be featuring three distinct characters from the Batman franchise.

On one of the bottles, a character donning a sleek Batman suit is seen. The suit looks similar to the one that was revealed by director Matt Reeves back in February. The other two bottles appear to be featuring Catwoman and Riddler.  

A closer look at the bottles also reveals a trademark bat insignia.

Full Image Reveals Riddler

A leaked promotional photo of the supposedly new Mountain Dew packaging contains an important detail about 'The Batman' (2021).

Responding to DCEUPosts, a twitter user posted a picture on his handle. The user claimed the picture to be the full-image version of the picture revealed by DCEUPosts. 

The full image provided by the user highlighted a marketing campaign related to the Batman franchise. The campaign seems to be involving some form of riddle-solving games for a chance to win Batman merchandise. 

Neither DC Films nor Mountain Dew has issued official statements about this reveal. This photo reveal might also be fake, according to DCEU Posts itself and some fans.
