Following up on yesterday’s teaser photo of the new Batmobile from the forthcoming Batman vs. Superman film, director Zack Snyder tweeted another image today, one that reveals the suit that actor Ben Affleck will wear when he plays the role of the Dark Knight, alongside a different angle of the vehicle.
While most of the car remains hidden, this new image supports our initial hypothesis that the new Batmobile looks like a blend of Christopher Nolan’s utilitarian Tumbler and Joel Schumacher’s more cartoonish, but also, car-like Batmobiles.
As for Batman’s costume, the first thing that stands out aside from the overly muscular outline and the 5 o’clock shadow on the hero’s face, is the very short ears on the cowl.
The Batman vs. Superman movie is slated to arrive in theaters in May 6, 2016, and besides the two male superheroes, it will also mark Wonder Woman’s (played by Gal Gadot) first major live-action film appearance.
