X-Men First Class is at it again! The last awards/nomination news for it was that it's now in the Academy's 10 choices for the eventual 5 contenders for the Best Visual Effects award. Now, the movie bags another nomination & this time it's for the costumes!
Sammy Sheldon, who did a splendid job in costume design for the movie is nominated for a Costume Designers Guild Award in the Excellence in Fantasy Film category.
I'm sure we can all agree that we absolutely loved the fresh new direction Sammy took (for an X-Men movie) by bringing forth the good memories we all have of the classic X-Men costumes! He managed to simultaneously put his own spin on them, ensuring that they don't end up looking like tacky yellow-black-&-blue spandex costumes but in fact, costumes that even some cosplayers took to wearing for a few Comic Cons!
Let's hope the best for Sammy & X-Men First Class! To read more & download the HQ image above, click the link at the end of this article.
