This could be a spoiler. I am quoting this from Peter Scirretta at slashfilm (find the whole story here)

The above image of Anne Hathaway as Selina Kyle (aka Catwoman) appears in the new trailer. Do you notice anything strange in the image? Take a look at her necklace. The below observation was found on Reddit:

Oh wow, I definitely did notice that. It makea sense, though, based on the trailer. When they're dancing, she kind of implies that she knows exactly who Bruce Wayne really is.

I'm no comic scholar, but that isn't normally canon, is it?

I can't recall off the top of my head, but I remember in previous versions of the Batman origin, Martha Wayne necklace breaks and the pearls spill out onto the street. Considering Bruce was a child at the time, I doubt it's the same necklace which makes me wonder how the hell Selina would know what the original looked like. I guess there could be some paparazzi photos of the Waynes taken that night.

Oh, here's the two previous film origins. In both the necklace breaks.

And the new Year One also has the necklace breaking. YouTube death of Thomas and Martha Wayne scene.

thanks for finding that. Maybe it's just an Easter Egg then. Or a set up for Bruce Wayne to remark "that's just like my mother's." IDK.
