DCEU Rumors Point To Non-Flashy Costumes In BIRDS OF PREY And More Action In THE BATMAN
Some interesting new rumours about both Birds of Prey and The Batman have been revealed today as it's said that we shouldn't expect "flashy" costumes in the former, while the latter will be action-packed.
Revenge of the Fans has shared some interesting updates on the DC Extended Universe and these are bound to get fans talking. While Aquaman may have featured colourful, comic accurate costumes, it sounds like Birds of Prey (And The Fantabulous Emancipation of One Harley Quinn) will be heading in a slightly more grounded direction.
Even though director Cathy Yan has reportedly come up with some very cool costumes for the lead characters in the movie, it's said that the filmmaker has gone for a "far less flashy design concept."
That doesn't mean the likes of Huntress and Black Canary won't be decked out in something resembling the source material, of course, but it sounds like we should expect an aesthetic more along the lines of Suicide Squad. Here hoping Black Mask still has his, well, mask, eh?
As for The Batman, it's said that Matt Reeves' second draft of the screenplay "has amped up the spectacle" and that presumably means we can expect quite a bit more action in what has previously been billed as a movie along the lines of David Fincher's Se7en. Tonally, it's also being compared to Batman: Year One despite not being another origin story for the Caped Crusader.
Oh, and Warner Bros. is said to be aiming for a 2021 release date which makes sense.
