"I asked them, ‘What about taking the suit home at the end of the thing?’" said Affleck. "And they said, ‘For $100k.’ And I said, ‘Well maybe I’ll just take a picture …’ There’s a lot that goes into it, there’s a lot of designers. These movies have become the big deal, so they spend a lot of money on every little detail. And they’re scrutinized and criticized, and the guy who did the suits did a very good job."The Batsuit in question is the work of renowned costume designer Michael Wilkinson, best-known for his costume work on 300, Twilight: Breaking Dawn: Part One, Terminator Salvation, and of course, Superman: Man of Steel.Wilkinson has said in the past that he'll be treating each of Batman v Superman character's histories with nothing but respect, seemingly apparent by the redesign for Wonder Woman , which keeps elements of old while also adding a contemporary, New 52-style feel."Suffice to say we really respect the histories of all of these characters," he said. "We're all very reverent about the iconic graphic nature of these characters and their costumes. We see ourselves as part of the natural lineage of how these characters are being portrayed throughout the ages and our goal is to create something relevant and exciting for today's audiences."
