DCEU Photographer Clay Enos Confirms That Alex Ross Was His Inspiration For The Latest JUSTICE LEAGUE Poster
When the new Justice League poster dropped before the team's Hall H panel at Comic-Con, fans got a very Alex Ross vibe from it, and photographer Clay Enos has now confirmed that vibe as being spot on.
One of the coolest things to come out of this past weekend's San Diego Comic-Con was the Justice League poster. The poster hit online right before the Hall H panel for the movie, and served as the promotional material that fans could get autographs from the cast on.When the one-sheet first made its way online, people couldn't help but notice what seemed to be the inspiration behind it: Acclaimed comic book artist Alex Ross.
Clay Enos, the photographer responsible for the photos on the posters as well as pretty much every other DCEU shot, has recently revealed that Ross was indeed the inspiration behind the print. “I first saw this painting as part of the Ayman Hariri’s Impossible Collection and it inspired me to shoot our gang in the same style,” Enos said, referring to Ross’ painting of the Justice League for the Justice comic book. “I used this exact image as my reference for what became the latest JL poster. I simply had the idea and took the initiative to pay homage to Alex Ross by making a few quick portraits in that distinctive light. I’m so glad the WB marketing team ran with them. I love it!”
Check out the poster below, and catch Justice League when it hits theaters on November 17,2017.
