The past days have revealed numerous set photos and leaked videos from the "Batman V Superman: Dawn of Justice" production. The Batmobile in action and the sound of its engine were the recently talked about spoilers for the movie. However, Bad Robot's latest video of the Millennium Falcon also revealed a replica of the Batmobile, which according to some "Star Wars" and "Batman" fans, hints resemblance to the vehicle from "The Dark Knight Returns."

A video of the Millennium Falcon for "Star Wars: Episode VII" was recently released, where fans got to see a close up and detailed look at the ship's exterior. However, fans were also quick to point out an image that allegedly resembles the Batmobile, according to Movieweb. The Batmobile replica was reportedly "a very cool 'Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice' easter egg," according to writer Alan Orange.

As seen on the video, the camera starts to slowly pan towards the ship. From its frontal look then to the side, viewers can see some very intricate details of the ships piping. Then the camera zooms under the hull where fans reportedly saw a Batmobile. Before the video ended, the camera takes a closer look and focuses on the vehicle.

However, the Batmobile under the Millennium Falcon supposedly resembles the Tumbler from "The Dark Knight" movies. There's no resemblance whatsoever to the Batmobile from the Detroit set of "Batman V Superman: Dawn of Justice," according to Movieweb.

For the sake of comparison, here's Zack Snyder's official picture of the Batmobile for the "Man of Steel" sequel, which he posted on Twitter on Sept. 10. DailyMail, on its 2013 article, looks back at the vehicle from "The Dark Knight" trilogy, while IGN graciously included a screen capture of the Batmobile's replica from the Millennium Falcon video.

Movieweb claims movie directors Jack Snyder and J.J. Abrams have since been in the habit of tweeting each other jokes over their movies. The Batmbobile hiding under the Millennium Falcon is reportedly another Twitter joke. The past days, fans have seen Superman disguised as a Sith warrior, Batman's encounter with Artoo in the "Star Wars" desert and C3PO as Gotham City's protector. Synyder's latest Twitter joke was over the weekend, where he posted a photo of a Stormtrooper caught stealing a Batmobile.
