When you’re building an intricate cinematic universe, you expect to field questions about Batman casting rumors, continuity across rebooted timelines, or a multitude of other lore that comes with the territory of putting together new superhero movies. However, every now and then, the internet comes through with a question so oddly specific and hilarious, you almost don’t expect an answer. And yet, James Gunn delivered. How do prisoners poop in Lex Luthor’s pocket universe, which we saw in the 2025 movie schedule release, Superman? Yes, there's an answer for that.
In a recent post on Threads, a fan posed the very important (and slightly unhinged) question while rewatching Superman (which you can stream now with an HBO Max subscription). They said, “[James Gunn], this is just a question I had while I was rewatching Superman. Are the prisoners in Lex’s pocket universe watching each other go to the bathroom, or do they get some privacy? 😂”
