Moviemaking is a collaborative process, and sometimes that means a director and actor might get into a debate about how a certain scene should be shot. That’s just what happened between James Gunn and David Corenswet on the set of Superman, specifically when they were filming the scene where Clark Kent passionately explained to Lex Luthor what makes him “human” after the Nicholas Hoult-portrayed bald baddie called him a “piece of shit alien.” Fortunately, the intense debate ended on a positive note, and fans of the 2025 movie release can be thankful that all this was captured on video.
