Off the heels of this week's big DC movie news with director and DC Universe architect James Gunn announcing what's in store for the rebooted universe, including a new Superman movie to kick things off, Gunn wanted to know one important thing: trunk or no trunks.

　　For most of his history, Superman has donned red trunks similar to that of a circus strongman. The look was updated with the removal of the trunks with the introduction of the New 52 in 2011, but eventually went back in a few years with DC Rebirth.

　　As for live-action, both have been applied. For the first Superman serial back in the late 1940s with actor Kirk Alyn, then the first Superman movie in 1951 with soon-to-be television's first Superman, George Reeves had the trunks. Followed by Christopher Reeve and Dean Cain and Brandon Routh all donned the trunks.

　　For 2013's Man of Steel with Henry Cavill, the trunks were removed for the first time in live-action with the Superman suit was more in line with his comic book suit at the time, appearing more alien in design rather than the homemade look that came before.

　　Gunn also pointed out that the poll was just for fun and won't decide either way based on the poll itself.

　　"[By the way] this is for fun. We're not going to decide whether Superman has trunks or no trunks based on an egregiously non-scientific Twitter poll," he posted.

　　At press time, trunks is leading with 62.8%.
