Recent Justice League set reports revealed that Ezra Miller will be sporting an armoured, homemade costume in the movie, with that later replaced by a version made by Bruce Wayne (this is an interesting decision on Zack Snyder's part, especially as the comic book version of the Scarlet Speedster creates his own suit from the Speed Force). Now, artist extraordinaire BossLogic has offered up his interpretation of what the actor's take on The Flash will end up looking like on the big screen next November.
The site also has a quote from costume designer Michael Wilkinson in which he elaborates on the creation of The Flash's suit (which is made up of 148 pieces and said to be slightly bulkier than this).
"Okay, so when Zack and I started talking about Flash, he loved the idea that because this is the first time we're establishing this character in our cinematic universe, that's it's kind of like a prototype suit. He's discovering his powers, he's working out what his thing is, and he is testing things. Some things work, some things don't work. Some things are in development. And so this suit is incredibly beaten up. This is a suit that's being assembled. If you look this way, that is the full suit how it appears in the movie."
"It's a prototype suit. It's something that is designed to protect him when he moves incredibly fast through space. And so we studied aerodynamics and vehicle design. What moves through space the fastest? We have this sense of rigid pieces at the front that deflect towards the back....There's a sense of a blade like in a plane wing here, and then venting back here. So it all feels very aerodynamic. He's testing different materials. You can see smooth materials like tech materials. We figured he's an incredibly smart, resourceful young man."
Also below is BossLogic's take on Matthew McConaughey as the Reverse-Flash. That would be pretty cool to see, and it's hard to imagine anyone better to play the villain on the big screen than him...
