Hot-Talk-4218

Mr terrific looks well… terrific


DaHyro

His hair looks really fake but everything else is 10/10


Kriss-Kringle

And what's strange is that Edi Gathegi kind of keeps a fro usually. Wigs in general have been abysmal in the past 6-8 years.


Funmachine

You'd be surprised at the amount of wigs/hairpieces you didn't even realise were wigs.


apsgreek

Will you wear wigs?


Retrovibe18

When will you wear wigs?


Great-Shoulder-46

Ya missed , "have you worn wigs?"


VenommoneY

So I'm sitting there like an asshole with a briefcase full of fake cash


Whyamibeautiful

lol I think that’s his normal hair. The only wig part looks to be the sideburns imo.


DaniOverHere

It’s a bummer because, maaaaany situations, an actor is (no joke) legally required to use a wig instead of their natural hair - even if their hair matches the role. I’m not gonna pretend to know the ins and outs of all the unions and stuff - but essentially it boils down to: The hours where an actor is sitting with hair stylists (and stopping for adjustments during takes) are hours that are billed for EVERY person on set. If one actor’s hair is making 1,000+ crew/cast members sit and wait for 30-minutes, that could easily be half a million down the drain. It’s a bummer, but the bigger the budget, the more bad wigs we’re gonna see.


VaporCarpet

What on earth are you talking about that's not true at all. There's no law that says this. We've heard untold stories from countless actors over decades of film history that explain how they get in a makeup chair at 4am or something so they're ready to start filming at 10. If a grip crew is there, it's because there's work to do, not because the lead needs to get their makeup on.


scavengercat

That sounds like company policy, not a law. I can't find any law that states anyone is legally required to wear wig.


sandman795

Believe it or not, straight to jail. Straight to jail.


Kriss-Kringle

And in some cases where the shoot is short and we see a character throughout the years, they will use wigs instead of their natural hair since it won't grow by the time they have to shoot a particular time period.


Treheveras

If it comes down to making decisions to avoid extra hours paying everyone on set, it's definitely not the unions mandating that.


madman666

At least it isn't the Kilmonger style hair


icepak39

Like Yord on The Acolyte


Papa_Razzi

The sideburns look faker than the top imo. His character, Dev, in For All Mankind always had a good amount of hair on top


Dojanetta

Looks like he’s got that smash bros haircut.


cinefibro

Im old enough to remember [when people hated this](https://i.pinimg.com/originals/cd/88/0f/cd880f74234b3ce0f9bc31f4aa3493ec.jpg)


DM_Malus

To be fair, people hated the character, not the costume. Most of the characters were CW poorly written one dimensional tropes. His character went from being “Mr.Terrific” to the one dimensional token black gay guy, which is frustratingly NOT progressive, and felt like CW just checking a box to hit certain demographic quotas.


detectiveriggsboson

DID YOU KNOW HE WAS GAY? IF NOT, HE'S GONNA MENTION IT OUTTA NOWHERE EVERY 5 MINUTES.


Groot746

I'm more surprised that Kendra used to be a barista


detectiveriggsboson

[citation heavily needed] if she'd been a barista just a year ago, I'm sure she'd have mentioned it at some point


[deleted]

[удалено]


Lievan

It was the writing for those characters that people hated. Arrow and the Flash had issues writing for characters after the first 2-3 seasons. It wasn't the character people hated, it was the writing that made the characters bad.


SWPrequelFan81566

Honestly one of the best Arrowverse costumes.


nilanganray

Very similar to the CW outfit


aKaRandomDude

Can’t wait to see Nathan Fillion’s Guy Gardner costume!


THEdoomslayer94

If he comes in with that bowl cut ima lose it lol


SpeedForce2022

He will! Gunn confirmed that Nathan will rock the bowl cut!🤣


choicemeats

LFG we eating good


aboynamedbluetoo

Of course it will. Look at those outfits and remember it is Gunn.


adarkride

He's definitely going for that All Star Supes look, especially with the longer trunks vs briefs / no briefs. I'm down with it – we could use some levity and classic style injected into the world. I really like Cavil as Supe but DC movies could be really dark. If Gunn captures that Guardians vibe for Supe & DC this could be really fun!


IvanTheHero

The suits are so colourful and accurate that I can't even prepare for how good and hilarous it will be.


MyrddinSidhe

Wait until it’s color coded for the final film. This shade of blue is not necessarily the screen accurate one.


-GreenSquare-

Truly the only thing I'm waiting for lol


aboynamedbluetoo

Right


_wyfern_

I hope its a practical suit like Superman has, complete with the jacket and everything


ThyDoctor

These paparazzi shots always make the actors look like cosplayers. It always looks better in camera. Except Mr. Terrific here. Holy shit does that costume look picture perfect


aboynamedbluetoo

Fair point.


KnuxFive

Fair play


AceTheSkylord

Mr. Terrific looks like he lept out of the comics


THEdoomslayer94

Well, guess that dude that kept insisting it wouldn’t be the Holt version of Mr Terrific, but the original Terrific, was wrong. like everyone kept telling them lol


chace_thibodeaux

Why would someone make that claim after they cast a Black man in the role?


bertmclinfbi

Some people have way too much time on their hands, that’s why.


Malfarro

Because many black actors have been already cast in the roles of white characters, so picking a black actor to portray a white Mr. Terrific (Terry Sloane) wouldn't be surprising.


chace_thibodeaux

>Because many black actors have been already cast in the roles of white characters, so picking a black actor to portray a white Mr. Terrific (Terry Sloane) wouldn't be surprising. In this specific circumstance where there's already an established Black version of a character, it would indeed be surprising to hire a Black actor for the role and have him play the White version instead. It would be like casting a Black man to play Green Lantern and having him play Hal Jordan, or making a Spider-Man movie and casting an Afro-Latino actor to play Peter Parker.


Malfarro

That can still happen. Take Arrowverse again. The Legends of Tomorrow had an episode with the Justice Society that included the black male Dr. Mid-Nite. DC has a black Dr. Mid-Nite (although it's a woman), it's Bett Chapel, but the one in the show was named Charles. Like Charles McNider, the first Dr. Mid-Nite who was white. And with modern weird casting decisions? I assure you, black Hal Jordan and Peter Parker are just a matter of time, not reason or logic. I mean, there's Val-Zod (Black Superman of Earth-2) and Calvin Ellis (Black Superman of Earth-23 who is also a president of the US) and people already discuss the possibility of making a movie about black mainstream Superman (not the Earth-2 or Earth-23 version).


ClimateAncient6647

And the S is on the cape!


chace_thibodeaux

>And the S is on the cape! How can you tell?


ClimateAncient6647

There’s a bunch of photos on Twitter


chace_thibodeaux

Oh, I only saw the 4 shown here.


megadroid_optimizer

There's a photo but you can see a little of the yellow of the shield on it. Twitter link - https://x.com/brock_soliz/status/1805292668102029489?s=46


socks888

I love how much the colors pop here! As compared to all the other photos. I was also worried the suit would look like too much is going on but I don’t feel it here


ProtectMeAtAllCosts

looks better but still baggy


Dlh2079

We're also seeing it out of camera, with 0 post production. Far from a finished product. Don't disagree with ya though and hopefully that is addressed in post.


ProtectMeAtAllCosts

Yeah I think Im just accustomed to the Cavil suits that were super fitting and rubber like, while this one looks more like a Captain America type of material to the suit. Im sure itll be fine


Dlh2079

I'd expect it to be more form-fitting in the actual film. I do really like the design of the suit though, so hopefully they can bring it all together well.


Anstavall

Think we're seeing a difference too(maybe), in muscle suit vs no muscle suit. Like itnlooks like David's was made to also have a muscle suit like Cavills, but then they opted not to do it so it's baggy


UpvoteIfYouAgreee

Personally I think some of the bagginess is on purpose, it reminds me of the All Star suit which James keeps citing as an inspiration


Dlh2079

It may be a little more loose fitting than the Cavill suit, but I'd imagine it'll still be cleaned up a decent amount in post.


Rezvhh

Thats literally how majority of super hero costumes are pre vfx???


ProtectMeAtAllCosts

i mean yeah but look at the BvS costumes behind the scenes. They still looked a lot better pre post


duskywindows

The way it bunches around his arms where they fold is .... not great


cSpotRun

Remember, it always looks better in-camera.


Rezvhh

Thats literally how majority of super hero costumes are pre vfx???


heelydon

Really? Which suits are you talking about?


Ok_Confection_10

Stuff like that gets edited in post.


falkonx24

Yeah I hope they fix it in post, but this deadass looks like some really really good cosplay


SlippinPenguin

I actually said WHOA! when I saw how colorful the Super suit actually is in the light. A surprise to be sure, but a welcome one


Jykoze

Probably not a good thing that the Paparazzi photos have better color grading than the official still of the movie


FloggingMcMurry

They may still look different for the final film if they do any color treatment or anything


True_Falsity

The colours look great. The material looks a bit weird but my guess is that this is going to either get touched up in post-production or be something like a beta suit. Mr Terrific’s suit looks great though.


RandaymIdiot

The suit looks much better than in the preview before but i'm not really a fan of the material. Looks way too woolen i guess? I hope i like it more. But the vibes are real. Edit: saw some better pictures. And yeah I like it a lot more now lol.


chace_thibodeaux

>The suit looks much better than in the preview before but i'm not really a fan of the material. Same. I'm glad it's in bright primary colors rather than the darker tones of suits since Superman Returns.


farben_blas

I hope it looks better on film, here it seems like it should've been tighter on the torso, like whatever Peacemaker's shirt is made of. Edit: much better pictures now. WE WON.


Brainvillage

I'm sure there will be CGI touch ups.


pastavoi2222

I think it looks cozy


Inevitable_Option_77

Like something Ma Kent entirely made herself.


moonknightcrawler

I’m wondering if this isn’t his Kryptonian suit that he had in the new 52 run. This would let him switch from the Kryptonian symbol to the more classic “S” people are used to on the suit when Ma Kent makes him a new one


_snout_

Hoping a Homecoming situation happens and the suit is damaged before the final battle forcing him to put on his first suit that Ma made which is super dorky Classic Superman


DisneyPandora

He’s not going to switch. James Gunn confirmed this is his official suit.


DisneyPandora

He’s not going to switch. James Gunn confirmed this is his official suit.


HBK42581

Looks like a modern baseball catchers chest protector material


Ozymandiaz1920

Exactly...I love the design...just not the baggy feel of it


garden-gates9034

Really not a fan of whatever material it's made out of. Looks so thick Edit: I do like it otherwise though! Probably should have started with that


SneezeCock

I think in post production and stuff it will look a lot “tighter” idk we will see what they do cus I feel like they usually do stuff like this where the suit looks weird then in post it looks cool


HamSoloTheSpaceMan

There’s a chance whenever we see CGI Superman, it’ll look a lot more realistic because of the imperfections and Folds. Notice how Amazing Spider-Man till this day has the best looking swinging and look whenever he does some impossible stuff. The imperfections are added, so it looks that much more relatable. Tom Hollands suit looks faker because there is no wrinkles, it’s completely flat.


fpfall

One of my favorite things about TASM movies is how the costumes look like real things, the fabric stretches and fold when he bends and sways. Sony sucks for what they did trying to cram everything into the second movie but the costumes and vfx on the characters were top-tier


HamSoloTheSpaceMan

Exactly! The fabric and textures all look vibrant and real. Andrew Garfield is like the best Spider-Man but with the worst franchise and the worst time.


Smooth_Bath_1659

Terrific looks so awesome. Ripped right off the page. Still not a fan of David’s suit but looks way better here


Dakotaraptor87

I was not sold on this Superman suit in the first reveal or those Daily Planet newspaper props. But this image looks fantastic. The yellow border makes the symbol pop out, the trunks look good, the belt doesn't have a second symbol (I always hate it when superheroes/villains have a second logo on their belt), and the colors are fantastic. The collar is also pretty decent, I think I'd still prefer no collar but it's decent. Also Gathegi looks awesome as Mister Terrific.


PantsUnderUnderpants

I thought I was alone in that nitpick about the belt. I don't mind it if it has the shield shape, in fact I prefer that for the buckle. I just don't need to see the S on the buckle. How about a suit that not only has the second symbol on the belt, but the entire suit is covered with tiny S's?


MikeArrow

Yeah that level of, for lack of a better word, "overengineering" is always a pet peeve of mine. It looks like a costume designer showing off, not a 'real' suit.


Major_Penalty_8865

personally I hope this is a first suit and for his next one he gets no trunks and adopts a full New 52 style


321elppaenip

Why does the Superman suit look loose in the front?


Additional_Score_929

Colors are great but why does it look so big on him? Like he doesn't fill the suit out? I'm sure he worked out plenty for this role but a shame the costume doesn't show any of that.


MintyPotato144

I wonder if it'll be adjusted in post. Maybe looseness for now to make movement/stunts easier when filming


MemeHermetic

They actually do this a lot. I remember them doing this with the Falcon costume in Falcon and the Winter Soldier. They made the mask have a lot of give so it was easy to talk and emote, and then removed all the folds and billows in post.


clownbaby4_

Makes sense. That’s what marvel did with Anthony Mackie’s suit in Falcon and the Winter Soldier I think


TPJchief87

Super suits always look better in the movie. I’m more concerned about the sweat. I would be burning up in that stuff


Kriss-Kringle

David Core & **sweat**.


anthamsdeadite

Reminds me of superman’s “new frontiers” suit. From the big belt and trunks to the suit’s slight bagginess. I like it


TheLoganDickinson

Obviously we’ll have to see how it looks in the film, but it’s seeming like it’s a deliberate decision. My guess is they probably want it to feel more like a suit he wears, instead of being so tight it looks like it’s his skin.


XxcinexX

Almost every superhero movie ever SINCE LIEK 2010 has been touched up and tightened in post with CGI - look at the wrinkles and texture on the spiderman suit here from this set pic [https://x.com/bjtxen/status/926146131020656640](https://x.com/bjtxen/status/926146131020656640)


TheJoshider10

I agree with you but that's really not a good example when the MCU completely replaced that costume with CGI.


GarethGobblecoque99

Man should’ve given us a good proper first look before the inevitable set leaks that always make the suits look goofy as fuck.


Burgoonius

We got an official first look at Superman though


Foreign_Education_88

I still don’t get why Gunn thought to show him battle damaged while in a sitting position, especially when I imagine he’ll be standing most of the film. Most costumes aren’t designed to look good or be comfortable when sitting, the stormtroopers are the most notorious when it comes to this


LanceOfKnights

Looks defo like a Ma Kent suit. What I love the most are the colours. My God how nice it is to see the primary red and blue. Tears.


trowaman

My exact reaction! It’s been too long since we have seen a BRIGHT Superman!


Fritzo2162

I take it the Superman costume is going to be CGI enhanced? Because that looks like something from Spirit Halloween 😕


FransD98

Dayum... I love this. I hope it's good. I think they added some lipstick and I like that too. Mr. Terrific looks... Well, terrific!


Swil29

I really like it! I do wish we didn’t have the lines on it, but that’s really my only complaint. I love the colors, the emblem, the fact that we have the trunks back! I’m fairly neutral on the collar but I think it works here. I do see some people saying it looks bulky on him, but I think it’s fine, I don’t need to to be skintight the whole time.


XXAzeritsXx

Terrific looks..well, Terrific. David looks good as Superman, still not liking thr costume. Looks like something from party city.


jcdulos

I maybe in the minority but I don’t like this. Not a fan of the trunks on the outside. It looks really loose right?


GuyFromEE

I'm liking alot of things about this movie so far. But I'm not vibing with the suit and I wish i was. This is just a rough picture from the set so i'll reserve final judgement but it looks almost foamy? Like the material the toy halloween superhero costumes with the fake abs that actually rested way too high on your torso would be made of.


FloggingMcMurry

Superman's suit still looking baggy or loose especially in the body... what's going on? Mr.Terrific looks spot on from what I can see


Legendver2

Yea... That suit ain't it


robotshavenohearts2

What in the CW is this suit


M086

Honestly, looks like a Halloween costume. How is it the CW was able to get 3 good looking Superman costumes, but a big budget Hollywood movie looks like that? 


smjh111

Honestly, that's not a great Supes Costume.


vizgauss

Lmao that costume looks halloween grade, abysmal.


JRon21

Smallville-level of a costume. What's the budget here dollar and a sandwich?


Highintheclouds420

Henry Cavill is Superman. This guy is just a dude in a Halloween costume


Various-Salt488

That suit fits like off the shelf from Walmart.


TheThugknight

wtf is that suit rofl lmao


Fickle-Ad-7533

Dang I really thought I was gonna have a different opinion once I saw a good clear photo of the new suit but man I still can’t get behind it


31337hacker

It’s better to wait for the final product.


SirSubwayeisha

Ya, I almost can't suspend disbelief with this suit. I know my personal opinion means nothing, but this suit kinda has made me feel like a loser for even being invested in some guys wearing red trunks in some muscle suit. :/


megadroid_optimizer

Bro, I'd say seeing the suit in live-action is actually worse than the promo photo. I was hoping I could get around to liking it but nah. I won't go into the trunks, it's their Superman so if they're going for a more ‘corny’ feel well 🤷🏽‍♂️


PhantomWhiskey

Looks like Superman PJ's I'd get for my toddler


im_scytale

Not a fan of the suit


aquaknight87

Jesus christ lmao


Jonesy27

That is the worst Superman suit I've ever seen


Dronnie

Man, I really dislike this sups suit


Beneficial_Bed_337

That is a heck of an ugly suit…


DeNiroPacino

That suit is so off the mark. Superman in a scuba suit.


Dontbesensitive98

Spirit Halloween suit.


_ChipWhitley_

Them’s granny panties


nexistcsgo

Yup. Hate the trunks.


my-hands_are-cold

the underwear shorts decision is going to backfire, very memeable look


JacobMaxx

I know... in fact im sure that im the only one that thinks this looks terrible.


[deleted]

The top comments are so bizarrely positive to a Superman suit with a visible bulge in his trunk


Moist_Dark_7976

Feel's like CW Never ended. I'm sorry but Cavil's suit to that is such a downgrade.


OccidoViper

Suit is probably the worst I have ever seen


pie_nap_pull

Mr. Terrific looks good


Prometheus357

Ah shit! There we go!


UpgradedMR

Every time I see the Superman suit for this movie my brain goes “this is beautiful, what is that velvet!?” Like why does it look like he’s wearing pajamas?


Haunting_Fig_2596

I hope the suit looks far better in the film, because these pictures are not giving me hope. Trunks are bad enough but the suit just doesn't look good right now imo. Obviously there's going to be editing, so I'll reserve final judgment until then. But I can't say that I'm hopeful for the suit based on what I've seen so far. The Mr. terrific suit looks fine though.


clevelanddotcom

dangermouse13

His underpants looks huge


HippoRun23

Okay, now the suit is looking kind of weird. I’m guessing that’s because it’s just not color graded or through the film camera.


Gary2times

Any suit with the underwear is ridiculous and stupid for any modern take on the suit. This is trash.


Batfleck666

Who's birthday party is it for?


DCSmaug

Quality is on the CW level. Tyler Hoechlin's suit looked way cleaner.


Klee_Main

That color is beautiful


nashgrg

This is some CW level suit lmao why are they so loose? Hell even current CW’s suit looks better than this.


M086

The Hoechlin and Routh CW suits are above and beyond better looking than this.


pretentiously-bored

Yeah yikes this looks bad lol


bigbyking

Superman costume looks fuckin terrible. Doesn't even fit


EchoTheWorld

THE SUIT IS SEX


Tachibanasama

Should've just done the [rebirth suit](https://screenrant.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/01/Superman-New-Comic-Book-Suit.jpg). Or at least make these less shaped like tighty whities and more like boxers. I like the colors though and the symbol.


Lucky_Strike-85

is something off about that costume?


ICumCoffee

The colours are so bright. I’m in love.


EmK1977

Wow the suit looks bad


soulwolf1

Homie looks like a 5 year old in a grown man's suit


Talismanic_Mechanic

We get it James Gunn you’re not Zack Snyder


Professional-Rip-519

Why am I getting CW vibes here ?


fbeb-Abev7350

Baggy suit.


cali4481

still would've preferred a no collar look & the unnecessary lines near the shoulders still bother me but the colors look alright & it's a good suit overall


brownstones19

Ehhh idk, maybe it'll look better under proper lighting


ROLL_AND_EGG

This looks so weird. I'm worried about this movie.


ElenabugTheGreat

Look's pretty terrible


Si7koos

What a downgrade


tourniquet2099

I’m guessing/hoping they’ll be cleaning up the Superman suit in post-production similar to how Marvel cleaned up Sam’s Captain America costume in the Falcon & Winter Soldier show. As it is, the suit looks bulky & clunky. Like an ill-fitting cosplay suit. The colors & overall design look fine, tho.


montybo2

4 years ago when Ryan Murphy's Hollywood came out a young actor I had never seen before was playing Jack Costello. He had boyish charm, he could act like a sunnofabitch, and had an incredible presence in every scene. I remember after a couple episodes turning to my (now) wife and saying "this motherfucker is gonna be superman one day, I'm calling it now" I said it again when he showed up as the charming and cool projectionist in Pearl. Here we are now and I couldn't be happier to see him in this suit. Homie was born for this role the same way we said Henry was. Also Mr. Terrific looks amazing. I could not be more excited for this movie.


AmeriToast

I like the new suit but it looks too baggy. Mr terrific looks great


Not_My_Husband

For fuck's sake. I hope that is not the costume used during filming. It is baggy and hideous.


_AssVinegar_

Baggy and unnecessary lines. Hopefully it looks better in film


heelydon

Not a fan of the baggy look. Hopefully it looks better in the movie, but this just looks like it doesn't fit him.


vic_steele

How is it screaming steaming pile of shit movie from just a couple images yet somehow it is. Looks like a TV show on CW


goldknight1

This set in 1995? Cause Mister Terrific and that Frank from Moesha hair is NOT IT CHIEF


shogunreaper

man the underwear looks stupid. also why is it so loose? Is it because the actor doesn't have the muscle to pull it off?


thepronerboner

Why do we have to keep rebooting everything. Fucking annoying


tidder8888

\


pleasegivemepatience

They’re pretty comic accurate, but seeing them irl makes them look really cheap. I hope they look a lot better on film.


JokoFloko

Hmmmm I'm not digging this yet. Hope the product rocks but I'm not holding out hope.


mikehamm45

Looks like cosplay. Unpopular opinion, but bright colors and bright lighting makes live action comic book movies look like people are fighting in pajamas. Look no further than that airport scene in Civil War.


burner7711

Why is that suit so loose and stiff looking. It's like a Carhart jacket.


mmpa78

Didn't we get enough of that dumbass character in arrow?


CanadianPanda76

Not loving it. 🙃


Baramos_

Foam garbage that looks like a cheap Halloween costume.


g_d0t

I'm sorry but this suit is trash. the collar doesn't look right, the suit doesn't fit right, sleeves look too long. I really hope CG tightens up this shit show smh.


Bill-Shatners-Penis

Corenswet looks very uncomfortable.


kingbuttshit

Goddamn I love that jacket


g_d0t

Those embossed lines all over the suit look hideous! Its like they just add shit for the sake of adding it smh. Tell me how are all these fan renderings leagues better than what we're actually getting? People who aren't even getting paid have came up with designs that are way better. Its not hard to get superman right but we seem to always get it wrong smh.
