If you're excited for
Zack Snyder's re-imagining of
DC Comics Man of Steel then you'll want to take a trip to
ArcLight Pasadena cinema to check out one of the original
Superman suits used in the movie on display to promote the film's release this week.

Michael Wilkinson and
James Acheson are responsible for controversially updating
Superman's iconic look, giving him much darker, moodier tones compared the classic vibrant red and blue hues. You can see just from these photos how the suit reacts to different kinds of light and the glossy sheen it has.

Personally I miss the traditional red underpants over the tights. For me that says
Superman and superheroes in general, and I'm more than willing to suspend my disbelief at the impracticality of the design. If you like an outfit closer to the colourful original suit, be sure to click through to check out
Brandon Routh's Superman Returns movie costume, which I thought was a really fantastic update.
