AceShowbiz - Michael Wilkinson, who designed the costumes for some characters in "Batman v. Superman: Dawn of Justice", reportedly confirmed some rumored details about the upcoming movie. One of the most interesting revelations Wilkinson made was that Ezra Miller's The Flash would indeed make an appearance in the DC superhero movie.
During a presentation at CCXP - Comic Con Experience 2015, the costume designer was asked about how he made a modern and different costume for The Flash. "Well, I'm not really at the liberty to talk about The Flash right now, but it's something that you'll be seeing in the future in our films," Wilkinson said.
He later revealed that fans would see the red speedster in "Batman v Superman". "You do get a glimpse of him, of course, in 'Batman v Superman'. But I'm really looking forward to taking the amazing, iconic costume for The Flash and interpreting it in a fresh way where Ezra Miller is playing The Flash," he explained.
As the conversation continued, Wilkinson seemingly confirmed that the scene in a recent trailer, which takes place in a desert and features the Dark Knight (Ben Affleck) fighting against flying Parademon-like creatures, was in fact an extended nightmare sequence for Bruce Wayne. The sequence in which Superman (Henry Cavill) unmasks the Bat of Gotham was also said to be the dream of Wayne.
"It is a different look. [Director] Zack [Snyder] had a great idea of this sort of nightmare-ish vision, almost a vision of the future, a post-apocalyptic vision. It's like a dream that Ben has, so we wanted to, it has almost a 'Mad Max' quality to it where it's like the end of the world, trying to survive and then of course Superman and his minions come," Wilkinson shared. "So it's sort of a way of representing the amazing amounts of, the sort of obsessive quality that Bruce Wayne has about the threat of Superman."
"Dawn of Justice" also stars Gal Gadot as Wonder Woman, Jesse Eisenberg as Lex Luthor, Amy Adams as Lois Lane and Jason Momoa as Aquaman. The movie is scheduled to hit U.S. theaters on March 25.
