Vypravěč: When Batman appeared on TV screens in the 1960s,
Vypravěč: his costume looked pretty similar to the comic book. But in 2022’s version, the leotard became 3D-printed, black body armor, complete with a functional arm gadget and insignia.
Batman has come a long way, from spandex and nylon to practical flying wing suits. And over the years, the mix of practical effects and CGI has created costumes that feel more real and believable to the audience.
In comic books, heroes often wear tight-fitting clothing to show off their superhuman muscles and strength. But when superheroes began showing up on the big screen in the 1940s, those were tough shoes, or suits, for actors to fill in real life. Those body types weren’t realistic and neither were the materials.
At the time, the most common fabrics for costumes were wool, felt, and nylon, nothing skintight like the comic books required, so the outfits were loose and ill-fitting, up until the invention of Lycra, or spandex.
1978’s «Superman» showcased what would become one of the most popular superhero outfits, designed by Oscar-winning costume designer Yvonne Blake.
— Whoa!
— That’s a bad outfit!
Vypravěč: She kept the trademark red underwear from the comic books. Underneath, Christopher Reeve wore plastic protection, something normally worn by boxers. But spandex can actually flatten out muscles, removing definition, so Reeves had to pack on over 30 pounds of muscle to appear stronger in the costume.
That all changed in the ’80s when robots took over our screens. C-3PO’s design in «Star Wars,» combined with the physique of Marvel comic superheroes, soon paved the way for this armored superhero costume.
RoboCop’s 1987 armored suit weighed 80 pounds. To make something so bulky actually wearable, the designers started with a flexible under suit and covered it with a harness, to which they attached a fiberglass exoskeleton.
The interior and the black sections were a mix of high-impact plastics and foam rubber, which made the suit so hot, actor Peter Weller sweated out three pounds a day.
The designers eventually installed an AC unit inside the outfit. This was also one of the first times that hero suits were somewhat functional. The team had to build seven different versions to show damage from different fight scenes, including one made of special fireproof fiberglass worn by a stuntman.
Similar hard exteriors were also used to bulk up comic superheroes. Tim Burton upgraded Batman to armor in 1989, swapping the spandex and trunks with sculpted rubber muscles.
David Crossman: It was a brilliant suit. I remember seeing that suit on location. It was a new idea and a new technique.
Vypravěč: The new idea: using black foam rubber latex to make Batman’s signature protective cowl. Formed as one piece for a seamless look, the cowl was connected to the cape, upper bust, and neck.
This meant that actor Michael Keaton couldn’t actually turn his neck in the costume. Instead, to turn his head, he had to swivel his entire upper body.
The complete outfit weighed just under 90 pounds, with the cape alone weighing 40 pounds. And the extra weight, in addition to the stiff cowl, made fight scenes stiff and awkward.
One superhero who needed his full range of movement? Spider-Man. His live-action debut in 1977’s «Amazing Spider-Man» series was a basic head-to-toe spandex suit.
But 2002’s «Spider-Man» would start a new tradition of combining both practical and digital versions of the costume.
Designers spent four months testing different versions of the costume to get the right fit and shape for Tobey Maguire, with the heightened illusion of muscles through rubber web lining and shading.
At the time, VFX designers struggled to animate faces, but since Spider-Man wore a mask, he was a perfect candidate for incorporating a CG costume.
For scenes that were just too dangerous for stunt actors to shoot in costume, they would be recreated digitally.
This final scene was completely CG, but it was the most time-consuming shot, taking 18 months to create.
CG shots still had room for improvement and were not yet as convincing as the real thing, so when director Christopher Nolan took on «Batman Begins,» he opted to shoot things in camera as much as possible and only use CGI to enhance scenes.
«Batman Begins» found ways to update Tim Burton’s bat suit with greater detail practically. The «Dark Knight» trilogy leaned toward designing an indestructible suit of armor.
Designers drew inspiration from military technology and materials to make it appear fireproof and bulletproof. The team also redesigned the armor in the sequel, molding out more than 100 smaller plates in clay before casting them in urethane. These plates were then placed onto a mesh under layer, which created even more flexibility.
The neck was also now adjusted for greater movement. The head section of the cowl was finally separated from the neck so it could twist more. The neck and jaw sections were scaled down and designed as smaller panels connected to the armor panels.
These practical advancements paved the way for even more integration between CG and practical suits. Like in 2008’s «Iron-Man,» which used a practical costume for his first clunky cave suit.
The 90-pound version was made with epoxy armor shells, urethane, leather, and aluminum.
But a rising new technology would make it easier to build lighter and more precise armor.
3D printing changed how costumes were constructed. Complicated pieces were made quicker, cheaper, and more precise. Like this blue mesh that was printed to give depth to Superman’s more modern chrome muscle suit.
The Star-Lord helmet in «Guardians of the Galaxy» could be accurately fitted with a 3D scan as well as include features inside such as hidden fans for better ventilation and red lenses that light up without affecting vision.
Instead of spending hours molding a suit, designers could quickly scan an actor and create a suit with perfect measurements.
2017’s «Wonder Woman» wanted to stay true to her modern-day costume, which premiered a year prior in «Batman v Superman.» Dozens of materials were tested to make the armor lighter and more flexible before adding a special metal plating finish.
Special effects team FB FX also developed a new technique that allowed actual metal plating to be used without affecting the suit’s flexibility. But it wasn’t just practical costumes getting an update at this time. CG costumes were looking much more realistic thanks to motion-capture technology.
Perfecting this led to the incredible realism of the digital time suits in «Avengers: Endgame.» This scene was actually filmed right after the prequel, so the final suits weren’t even designed yet.
But the technology really shined for characters like Iron Man and Spider-Man. Robert Downey Jr. and Tom Holland wore these suits on set to track their movements, and FX artists later replaced them with digital versions.
For 2021’s «No Way Home,» Tom wore what’s known as a fractal suit, an upgrade that fine-tuned and tracked the movement even more than regular mo-cap tracking suits.
With all of these advancements, costume designers could now combine CGI, 3D printing, and practical methods to bring an even more realistic Batman to the screen in 2022.
Robert’s bat suit kept the armored look from «Dark Knight,» and it was made of 3D-printed pieces of armor. The head and neck of the cowl were separate.
To create the seamless effect, the neck piece was made up of vertebrae-like pieces that eventually tucked under the chest armor and the top of the cape.
David: What’s nice about our batsuit is that Robert has a lot of head freedom. We were always trying to tweak the tension on it.
Glyn Dillon: But there’s all this clever kind of work underneath with the elastic bands that hold them to parts of the chest, so that when they move, they all come back into the right position.
Vypravěč: For the muscle suit, the focus was on making it as functional as possible.
Glyn: Every part of the suit was practical. The gauntlets, the gun, all the armor and everything, and even down to the insignia, the idea that it would be a knife.
Vypravěč: And this practicality paid off in larger stunt scenes, like when Batman leaps off the building.
David: That’s actually a real winged suit he’s wearing.
Glyn: We had ones that you could actually fly in.
Vypravěč: The team worked with parachute gliders to develop this version of the suit.
Glyn: It’s a little bit of visual effects, trickery to help it along the way, but all of the process, we did it, and there were real steps as to how he could turn his cape into the winged suit.
Vypravěč: Over the decades, each of these advancements has led to more and more believable superhero costumes and changed how they were brought to the screen, making them not just captivating to comic book fans, but to global mainstream audiences.

A big part of a superhero‘s appeal is their costume. Whether they’re brimming with color or dark as night, these super-suits help convey to their audience the kind of hero they’ll see wearing them.

While some comic book movies have taken liberties in creating realistic costumes, many times, the heroes rock outfits that look exactly like what they wore in the source material. Out of the many costumes seen on film, these ten have reached the height of superhero fashion.
10. Doctor Strange (Marvel Cinematic Universe)
No one else could pull off Doctor Strange’s look quite like Benedict Cumberbatch. The actor already bore an uncanny resemblance to the Sorcerer Supreme.

But with his red and blue costume in the MCU, his character fully embraces the “strange” parts of his superhero persona without ever looking over the top, complete with his Cloak of Levitation and the Eye of Agamotto.
9. Spider-Gwen (the Spider-Verse films)
Gwen Stacy’s costume has been an integral part of her popularity as Spider-Woman, so Do Spider-Verse just had to get the character’s look right. Thankfully, the filmmakers didn’t disappoint, as the web-slinger rocked her iconic black and white suit with pink webbed lining.
Also, the green dance shoes are a welcome new addition to her outfit, as they accentuate her ballerina-esque agility and elegance, further setting her apart from the other Spider-People in the Multiverse.
8. Deadpool (Deadpool 1 and 2)
When Deadpool was developing his first solo film, it seemed like any outfit would’ve been better than the look he had in X-Men Origins: Wolverine. However, the Merc with a Mouth’s blood-red suit seemed to have been taken right out of the comics when it debuted in 2016.
Unlike most cinematic superheroes, Deadpool’s mask retains the blank, white eyes typically seen in the comics, but they still manage to convey his facial expressions in a cartoonish manner fitting for his character.
7. Captain America (Avengers: Endgame)
Since his hero’s journey culminated in Mstitelé: Endgame, Cap’s final suit fittingly combines the best elements of the many suits that came before it. With his classic red, white, and blue color scheme, this getup blends the classic soldier’s fatigues of the past with the modern, polished armor of the present.
The star on this chest also seems to emanate a vibrant light with its scaly design, underlining his complete transformation into a symbol of hope for the people he’s sworn to protect.
6. Black Panther (Marvel Cinematic Universe)
Bringing Black Panther to the big screen was a lofty task for Marvel Studios, and doing the character’s suit justice was a crucial but successful endeavor. With his trademark vibranium necklace, T’Challa’s suit honors the hero’s classic look and invokes his African heritage. At the same time, it looks like a real piece of hi-tech armor reminiscent of Iron Man’s.
It only got better once T’Challa donned an upgraded version that could absorb and release kinetic energy, adding purple streaks of light that seemed to course through his veins like the mystical protector that his people so revere.
5. Iron Man (Avengers: Infinity War)
Tony Stark has built many different versions of his Iron Man armor in the MCU, but the Mark L surpasses them all in terms of style and function. Made up entirely of nanobots, this suit is smoother, much more fluid, and can generate a variety of cool and powerful weapons seemingly out of thin air, making it a technological marvel.
Likewise, the armor doesn’t go overboard with the color gold like the suit in Endgame, and the triangular arc reactor is more detailed and distinctive than previous models.
4. Batman (DC Extended Universe)
Michael Keaton and Christian Bale‘s costumes are some of Batman’s most definitive looks, but Ben Affleck’s main suit in the DCEU is arguably the best one yet. For one thing, it looks almost exactly like the suit featured in Frank Miller’s comic, Temný rytíř se vrací.
Also, the suit and cowl achieve the right balance of style and comfort, as Batman can fight freely and instill fear in his foes while the suit can still protect him without any excessive padding. On top of that, the gray coloring contrasts well with the black bat emblem, which features a polished design that isn’t too exaggerated or on the nose.
3. Superman (Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice)
Since DCEU was supposed to remake the Man of Steel for the modern age, Henry Cavill’s Superman did away with the classic red underoos and wore a sleek, detailed suit that looked like something from another world, allowing audiences to take his character more seriously. The emblem on the suit’s chest is also less blatant in its resemblance to an “S,” making it more like an alien symbol of hope.
But in his second film, the emblem features a quote from author Joseph Campbell (who was a huge inspiration for director Zack Snyder) written in the Kryptonian language that translates to, “And where we had thought to be alone, we shall be all with the world.” This hidden detail emphasizes Superman’s nature as a mythological hero who connects everyone he helps by embodying the best parts of themselves.
2. Wonder Woman (DC Extended Universe)
Making her cinematic debut in Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice, Wonder Woman dons a dazzling, Xena-esque armor that shows that she is ready for battle. Armed with her sword & shield, the Lasso of Truth, and the Bracelets of Submission, Gal Gadot’s character cements herself as a fierce and powerful warrior the moment she arrives on the scene.
And with this suit ditching the traditional star-spangled Spanx, Diana looks more like a hero from Greek mythology, revitalizing the character for the 21st century.
1. Spider-Man (Spider-Man: No Way Home)
The MCU did wonders for Spider-Man’s suit by giving him a mask with expressive eyes akin to Steve Dikto’s classic drawings of him. However, it wasn’t until the end of Tom Holland’s third solo film that his suit reached perfection.
Taking inspiration from Tobey Maguire and Andrew Garfield’s suits, this homemade outfit features the classic red and blue color scheme and a sharper, more traditional spider symbol. The MCU’s Spider-Man trilogy has been considered the hero’s origin story, and this suit symbolizes how he has finally become the friendly neighborhood hero everyone knows and loves.

Top 10 Superhero Movie Costumes
HLAS: Dane
Superheroes are popular for their mythology, morality and epic struggles. The last thing a superhero needs on the silver screen is a technicolored getup and a spandex suit that rides up into the crotch. For this countdown, the criteria is simple, either it was true to the sprit of source without being laughable, or simply transformed the unworkable getup into something believable and cool. For our purposes, we’re drawing a line and excluding CGI superheroes. Join http://www.WatchMojo.com and today we’ll be counting down the top 10 best movie superhero costumes.
Top 10 Superhero Movie Costumes
They may have the super powers and the skills, but their keen fashion sense is equally important. Welcome to WatchMojo.com and today we’ll be counting down the top 10 best movie superhero costumes.
Sorry Hulk fans, we’re keeping this guy out of the running as he’s made entirely of pixels, and only wears a pair of shorts…
#10- The X-Men “X-Men Trilogy” (2000- 2006)
Kicking off our list is the cinematic costume change that had comic fans up in arms, but made comic book films cool again for the rest of us. Ditching the kaleidoscope of colors from the source material, this film trilogy instead opted for the black leather look that paid a tiny bit of homage to the very original costumes. It’s a good thing too, since yellow is probably best left in the past, especially since Wolverine isn’t a fan of anything that’s too in-your-face…
#9- Rorschach “Watchmen” (2009)
This translation passed the test with flying colors, thanks to it being a lot less open to interpretation or update than most other adaptations. Unlike X-Men, we’re glad they faithfully pulled off the comic look, complete with trench coat, fedora and scarf. Of course, what really made it come together was his ever-changing inkblot for a face that shifted with his mood, which was done through a touch of CGI. Of course, unlike in the comics, Rorschach’s high-soled shoes couldn’t mask the small frame of the wearer, but real-life does have its limitations…
#8- Spawn “Spawn” (1997)
Okay, so this film was a missed opportunity that didn’t impress fans or newcomers. However its saving grace was the depiction of the character’s living suit, which took its gothic, organic and grim design directly from the bizarre stylizations of Todd McFarlane. It even included his glowing green eyes, while prosthetics properly captured his facial burns without the mask.
#7- Black Widow “Iron Man 2” (2010) and “The Avengers” (2012)
Taking a page from the X-Men trilogy is the secret agent outfit who also prefers to wear a black bodysuit. While it doesn’t look all that practical, she seems to get along just fine in it. Not convinced? Well it’s stylish and comic accurate, down to the emblem belt, her blasters and arm cannons. We won’t kid you though; it helps that it’s Miss Johansson filling the costume out nicely.
#6- Thor “Thor” (2011)
No one thought this godly portrayal could be done right. Somehow, the cape, chest plate and enchanted scaled armor didn’t look laughable, as we had feared. In fact, it gave him the spot on appearance of a beefy Norse warrior from another realm. Technically they cheated by dropping the winged hat and adding a beard, but it’s all in the details.
#5- Hellboy “Hellboy” (2004)
Sure, it takes an actor with a face like Ron Pearlman to sell it, but this is one of the most accurate comic book costume translations ever. Yes, we are counting the makeup job, as this character is a big honking’ devil. Thankfully, everything is as it should be, down to the filed horns, red skin, trench coat, utility belt and of course, the oversized right hand of doom.
#4- Superman “Superman: The Movie” (1978)
This costume has the distinction of being both the most iconic and the most dated, due primarily to the whole undies on the outside and bright blue spandex look. Fortunately for the man of steel, it still works, and Christopher Reeve pulled it off without resorting to padding. Besides, Superman’s outfit doesn’t need any added thickness- the guy’s nearly invincible anyways…
#3- Spider-Man “Spider-Man” (2002)
While all logic is thrown out the window when it comes to how a kid from Queens handcrafting this outfit, it still pitch-perfectly captures the look from the comics. It even added adding reflective goggles and fine detail, all while proving that modern superheroes can get away with bright colors. Of course, the white lenses could never convey the expressiveness that Spidey’s eyes exude in the comics, but how the heck were they supposed to do that?
#2- Batman “The Dark Knight” (2008)
Tim Burton’s batman films deserve much of the credit for taking this iconic superhero and his costume far away from the skin tight and drawn on eyebrow nonsense of the Adam West era. However, we ultimately had to give the shutout to Nolan’s suit, which traded in rubber for painted military armor. The new suit ditched all the yellow, and gave batman the added luxury of being able to turn his head. Imagine that.
#1- Iron Man “Iron Man” (2008) and “The Avengers” (2012)
Taking the top spot on our list is probably the most difficult costume to create for the big screen, which could not have been pulled off until recently due to a convincing mix of CGI and practical effects. It’s sleek, stylish and gives us a sense of awe as its being assembled. It’s impossible to not see this suit in action and not wish that you had one of your own…
