Superman Suit Revealed
Warner Brothers has released a new image of the Man of Steel, played by Brandon Routh, from director Bryan Singer's upcoming Superman Returns, which is currently shooting in Australia.
USA Today reported that the new super suit has a classic look, with slightly darker colors.
Singer told the newspaper via e-mail from Australia, where he's shooting the film, that he wanted to remain faithful to the previous incarnations of Superman, from the Max Fleischer cartoons of the 1940s to the black-and-white George Reeves TV show to the Christopher Reeve movies of the 1970s and '80s.
Singer decided to keep the cape, the blue body suit, the red tights and even the V-cut opening of Superman's boots. But Superman Returns makes a few subtle changes to the suit: The character's "S" insignia is slightly smaller and higher on his chest, and instead of being painted on, it's more of a three-dimensional plate. In addition, the insignia is added to Superman's belt buckle
