BATMAN v SUPERMAN Costume Designer Discusses His And Zack Snyder's Take On 'Aquaman'
Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice costume designer Michael Wilkinson talks briefly here about redesigning the King of Atlantis for the big screen, weighing in on why he and director Zack Snyder had to change Aquaman's look to make him "powerful and relevant" for modern audiences...
Had enough of hearing about Aquaman's new look for the big screen yet? After a whole day of fans and bloggers discussing this take on the popular DC Comics character for Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice, toofab reached out to costume designer Michael Wilkinson (Watchmen, Man of Steel) to ask him about what it was like to reinvent the character for his first movie appearance. "It has been a thrill and an honor to bring this iconic character to life for a modern audience," he tells them. "Zack Snyder has a brilliant vision for making this character powerful and relevant. I enjoyed designing a costume that reflects this vision and honors the character's rich legacy." With reports that Jason Momoa's role in the movie will be pretty small, it could be some time until we see more of the King of the Seas. Regardless, he's expected to take on a leading role in Justice League and then of course in his own movie come 2018. Thoughts on these comments?
