Trivia

 * The disease that Nora Freemont and Alfred Pennyworth suffer from, MacGregor's Syndrome, is the same disease they were afflicted with in Batman & Robin. However this time, neither of them are saved from it as there is no cure.
 * The film pays another homage to Batman & Robin when Victor tells Nora after being released from cryo-sleep "I'll be back", this is a line famously uttered by Arnold Schwarzenegger, who played Freeze in Batman & Robin, in the Terminator film series.
 * Tom Cavanagh and Bre Blair play onscreen husband and wife. They previously played husband and wife in the CW show The Flash as Harrison Wells and Tess Morgan.
 * Mister Freeze's name is changed to Victor Freemont, as opposed to Victor Fries, like in the comics.
 * Lucius Fox makes his first appearance since Batman: the Deadliest Man Alive.
 * The only attendees of Alfred's funeral are Bruce, Barbara, Dick, and Tim. In an original version, Jason was also included at the funeral, but he was later taken out.

Quotes
"Our past few encounters, I wondered if you knew what it was like... to love someone so much that you'd be willing to do anything, absolutely anything for them. And to know what it feels like to get so close... and in the end find yourself unable to save them. But now I know. That you do."
