Does Iron Lung Have a Post‑Credits Scene? (Explained)
If you’re watching Iron Lung in theaters and wondering whether you should camp out until the very last credit: you’re safe to leave once the credits finish rolling. As of February 1, 2026, multiple audience reports — plus a dedicated after‑credits tracking site — agree there’s no mid‑credits scene and no post‑credits scene.
Iron Lung end‑credits scene status (spoiler‑free answer)
Quick answer: No, there isn’t a post‑credits scene
Iron Lung does not have an extra scene during the credits or after the credits. What you’ll get instead is a short credits roll with some fun “extras” appearing as part of the credits (more on that below), but nothing that suddenly pops up after everything ends.

What actually happens during the credits?
While there’s no true “stinger,” people are still sticking around because the credits include a little extra: Polaroid-style photos of cast and crew shown as the credits roll. So if you leave the instant the movie fades out, you may miss that part — but you won’t miss a story scene.
- Extras during credits: No (no additional scene)
- Extras after credits: No
- Bonus visuals while credits roll: Polaroid pictures alongside credits
What Reddit Fans Say About this (and why the rumor won’t die)
On Reddit, the consensus is consistent: no post‑credits scene, but the credits themselves are “worth it” for the extra images and the overall end‑of‑the-night vibe. A few people also mention they stayed because they’d heard a rumor there might be something at the end — and then confirmed there wasn’t.

A real-world tip: theaters can cut credits short
Even when a movie has no post‑credits scene, some theaters brighten the lights fast or start ushering people out early. If you want to catch the Polaroids, it’s worth staying seated until the credits are fully done.
