how did Gus know Superman's secret identity?


Right at the end when Gus tells the workers 'oh you don't know about me and Superman' he pulls his shirt back just like Clark does as he knows Clark/Superman's secret identity. How did he know this?

reply

He doesn't know Clark and Superman are the same. It was really just an in-joke.

Good point, I actually just realized that it makes no sense because, as far as most people in this movie’verse know, Superman has no secret identity.

Otherwise he’d wear a mask

The computer told him they were the same person

plot hole

It could also be that

Gus was trying to be funny by ripping his shirt open & stuff pretending like he was gonna change from Gus into the Man of Steel 😜.

Gus was great. This was the greatest Superman movie ever
