References to Judge Dredd in other media.


Live Action TV
  • Tim Bisley from Spaced is a noted fan of Dredd (as is his actor) and there are several Dredd posters and comics in both the flat and at Fantasy Bazaar.
  • The Last of Us (2023) episode "Left Behind" has a scene where Ellie and Riley visit a Halloween store in an abandoned mall in Boston. The black helmet of Judge Death is visible in one of the display cases.
  • 30 Rock has a one-time appearance from a judge named Gregory L. Dredd.

Music

  • Anthrax's "I Am The Law" is about Dredd.
  • The Human League's "I Am the Law" is a Filk Song about Judge Dredd, written by the Mk. I incarnation (which had a knack for science fiction) and performed by the Mk. II incarnation on Dare.

Video Games

  • A hidden area in Duke Nukem 3D has a desk hidden behind a courtroom with a nameplate inscribed "J. Dredd".
  • Disco Elysium allows Dredd's catchphrase "I am the law" as a dialogue option in several conversations. Saying it seven times pops an achievement and saying it enough will allow Harry to introduce himself to Lilienne the Netpicker as "The Lawbringer", which unlocks the Bringing Of The Law (Law Jaw) thought.
  • Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War and Call of Duty: Warzone had a limited time DLC pack featuring Dredd's uniform and weapons for Beck. Seemingly, Beck became a fan of the comics after he was sent one and grabbed as many as he could trade for once he got hooked.
  • One of the unlockable characters in Bro Force is Bro Dredd. His Lawgiver fires rounds that automatically home in on enemies, as a nod to the heatseeker rounds, and his special attack is a Player-Guided Missile.
  • Cyberpunk 2077 has several nods to the franchise. The Max-Tac officers are heavily inspired by judges, the apartment blocks are very reminiscent of city blocks, particularly Peach Trees from the 2012 movie, and one of the achievements is "I Am The Law".
