ELSEWORLDS BTS Photos Give Us Another Look At Tyler Hoechlin's Superman In His Black Costume

Stephen Amell shared an official set snap of Superman actor Tyler Hoechlin sporting that fan-favorite black suit, but these latest behind-the-scenes Elseworlds photos give us a clearer look. Check 'em out.

Arrow star Stephen Amell recently revealed that Tyler Hoechlin would be sporting a black costume when he returns as Superman/Clark Kent for the Elseworlds event, and now we have another look at the actor shooting a scene for the upcoming Arrowverse crossover.

As you can see, Supes is once again decked out in that all-black outfit as he reads from what appears to be some sort of ancient tome. A book of spells, perhaps?

Why The Man of Steel would be reading from a spellbook is anyone's guess, but there is a lot we still don't know about this year's DCTV crossover event and to be honest, this is probably the least strangest development yet!



The Elseworlds Arrowverse crossover begins Sunday, Dec. 9 with The Flash at 8 p.m., then continues on Monday, Dec. 10 at 8 p.m. with Arrow, and concludes with Supergirl on Tuesday the 11th at 8 p.m.

Looks pretty good in a black suit.

...Maybe because he's a Skrull?!

That looks so good and gives me such a throwback to George Reeves classic b&w episodes.

He's such a damn good Supes. You can't look at him in the suit without smiling, that's perfect.

@Ha1frican - I'm with you. Neither him or the suit work for me. But then I don't watch the show. I gave it an honest chance and intensely dislike it.

What is the meaning of this black suit? Is he back from the dead like in the comics?

@Nightwing1015 - could be an alternate evil superman. Superboy prime wore a suit like that for a while. Maybe theyre taking the idea of an evil superman and the black suit and tweaking it for this story to give us one of the villains.

The Horror! If they could just ... phase out the shoulder straps. They're like ... training wheels.

@BillyBatson1000 - not a fan of the shoulder straps, but seem to look better on the black suit/cape

@DSAC294 - Yes, they blend in more.
