The Dark Knight Sports A Very Different Costume In Latest Still From THE LEGO BATMAN Movie

The Caped Crusader looks a lot different to his usual self in this latest image. Meanwhile, it sounds like we can expect The LEGO Batman Movie to poke fun at Suicide Squad. That should be fun...

Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice was criticised for not being fun (a complaint I still don't understand), but it looks like we can expect The LEGO Batman Movie to be the complete opposite from a tonal standpoint. That's evident from the latest official image release by Warner Bros. as we see Will Arnett's Dark Knight rocking a very different sort of costume. So, what's the deal with this new look? 

"In all the Batman movies, there’s always a big gala, but one of the things Batman doesn’t like doing is going out and seeing people and carousing as Bruce Wayne. He thinks Bruce Wayne is a bummer. He’d much rather be doing Batmanny things," director Chris McKay tells Entertainment Weekly"But fortunately Alfred (Ralph Fiennes) entices him to come out of the Batcave by telling him, ‘Look, if you go out tonight to this gala, you can have a tuxedo dress-up party.’ So in this shot, this is one of the many tuxedos that Batman tries in a sort of dress-up party montage like Sex and the City."


More comments from the filmmaker can be found by clicking the link below, but he also told the site that this scene will be set to Al Jarreau's "Girls Know How," a nod to Night Shift starring Michael Keaton. There will also be Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice and Suicide Squad Easter Eggs, but he was understandably reluctant to shed too much light on those. They should be pretty interesting...

If this film loses to Fifty Shades when it comes out, I will riot.

Kind of reminds me of Brandon Flowers of The Killers. He wore a suit very similar to this.

@Spider2YBanana - I completely agree. The rest of their stuff is pretty great. I've met a lot of people that absolutely refuse to give their other albums a shot. Listening to their other albums is literally one of the best decisions of my life.

@FoiledCranium - and I thought I was the only one who liked day and age haha. Sams town is great and sawdust is underrated, but I could never get into battle born.

@Spider2YBanana - Day & Age is my favorite of their albums! I just looked at Battle Born as an extension of Sam's Town, and it all fell together.

Yes, a 19-year old man just cried as his mother read Peef the Christmas Bear to his younger sister. Shut up and let me have this.

@TheNewGuy123 - The weirdest thing about this comment is calling a 19-year old a 'man'. I mean, I'm 23 and I still consider myself an immature teen :P

@MonsieurCringe - I'm over 18 now, I consider myself a man.
