Hinting At Costume Reveal? Not So Fast Says Michael Wilkinson

Fan poster: jessicabrooke25 (IG)

The twitter world has been abuzz, ever since costume designer Michael Wilkinson tweeted this cryptic message over the weekend.

Great photo shoot today with amazing photographer Steven Simko - stand by for awesome photos in the next few weeks....
5:01 PM - 8 Mar 2014

Many read it as a teaser for a rumored imminent release of new costume photos for Batman vs. Superman. But last night Wilkinson clarified what he really meant, joking with us about the misunderstanding.

- you all KNOW I can't reveal any production secrets!!! - the photo shoot I was referring to was my new headshot shoot....!
10:17 PM - 10 Mar 2014

I think they're the most highly anticipated headshots in the history of cinema ...LOL!!!!
10:30 PM - 10 Mar 2014

If the rumors are true, we should be seeing a preview of the new Batsuit and Wonder Woman suit, along with the tweaked Man of Steel suit BEFORE the start of filming in April. Wilkinson confirmed to us he'll be in Detroit through December. While he may not have teased the costume reveal on twitter, did he almost reveal the news to us during our interview? -- that's what a commenter on YouTube seems to think.

Mister Covek:

at 1:55 He was going to say "...before we start shooting", but then changed his mind mid sentence. I guess they're not allowed to say when the photos are being released. But yeah, they're probably going to release them in a month or so. Can't wait!


Sooooo.. what's the verdict?? We think he's right! -- consider us on #CostumeRevealWatch. We promised we'd bring you more from Wilkinson's conversation with Bobi Garland last week at LACMA, and here it is. In this clip the Batman vs. Superman designer answers some fan-submitted questions. There is a great moment at about 1:17 when he talks about the "learning curve" for designing superhero costumes.

Another highlight was when the designer talked about creating a "muscle suit" to use as a base for the Man of Steel costume. Wilkinson said it's not exactly a fun process for the actor, because they basically had to ask Henry to "take off all his clothes" so they could get a full body digital scan.

You can read a lot more on what Wilkinson discussed about the Man of Steel suit over at Tyranny of Style. If you are in LA, you can see his costumes up close and for free through April 26 at the FIDM.

More Of The Gorgeous At The 'Fast & Furious 6' London Premiere


Since Henry has been MIA for what.. a month now? - we are digging up pics we hadn't had a chance to post, or are floating around online until we get to see that great smile again. Hopefully soon. Hint, HINT Henry. These lucky fans met him and the beautiful Gina Carano at the premiere of Fast & Furious 6 in London last May. See everything else from that day. Love these two!  




If you own any of these pics, please let us know so we can properly credit.

That Time Gisela Interviewed Henry Cavill. In Costume. As The Duke Of Suffolk.

We thought for sure this picture of Henry with a fan during the filming of The Tudors would be the highlight of the week, with the lighter hair and the gorgeous curls.. and then came Gisela. Today she shared a little bit about her experience, after she got to interview Henry in Ireland:  

He walked into the room IN COSTUME, gave me a glorious smile and sat down in the chair in front of me, all ready for his interview.

Since this was season four, we're guessing he looked something like this.. 


Sitting in front of you. In the flesh. 


Needless to say, it was hard for Gisela to concentrate - READ HER FUNNY STORY.

Having interviewed Henry a few times, we can tell you the handsomeness can be distracting, so we completely know where she's coming from. 

thank you! the hotness factor was at an 11--I mean, he was wearing A SUIT OF ARMOR!
2:08 PM - 10 Mar 2014  

Gisela also told us Henry was in the piece that eventually aired for just a few seconds (*facepalm*). Seriously, the BEST story to kick off the week. Go ahead Batsuit reveal, try to top this.


Thanks again Gisela!

Hello Charles Brandon! & More Great Pics From Different Events


Is this a great pic or what? Carolyn met Henry in 2009 at a London pub. Lucky her!


These are pics from Henry's trip to Comic-Con in 2012. Thanks for sharing guys. We're loving the caption on the bottom one btw. Brilliant!  



These lucky fans (Sarah & Sabrina) met Henry in his hometown of Jersey.


Lily and another fan got a chance to meet him at the Warner Bros. Man of Steel screening in L.A. last year.

\


Hello Supermen: So what does Henry have in common with Aaron Smolinkski? If you don't know the answer, check it out. 


You can see more pics from that day in this post. FYI Henry: That sweater rocks. 

This is another oldie but goodie. Jennifer met Henry at the Tribeca Film Festival in 2009. When she shared her picture she added: "not only was he handsome, but he was really nice. Too bad I turned beet red."


Here's another great pic from the 2012 BAFTA awards (Thanks Tom). 


This one is from the 2012 Critics' Choice Awards. 


Jack shared this pic after meeting Henry at the Sucker Punch premiere in London. Curls! 


More curls! - this was last year as Henry attended the Windsor Castle Concours of Elegance. Thanks Nigel.


We left the best for last! -- this is a pic we hadn't seen of Henry, while he filmed Man of Steel in Plano, IL. Dave and his family got the chance to pose with him for this awesome photo. Here's hoping we get more of these when filming begins on Batman vs. Superman in Detroit (not holding our breath).


We love seeing pics of Henry with fans, but sometimes the source for them is not given. Please let us know if you are the owner of these pics and we'll be happy to give proper credit and link back. You can see many more pics from all the events in our gallery. Have a SUPER week everyone.
