Exactly one month from tomorrow, fans will finally get see two of the world's most popular superheroes go head to head in Batman v. Superman: Dawn of Justice. While the film's marketing has gone into full effect, certain mysteries about the movie still remain unknown. There have all been several rumors about how it will connect to the upcoming Justice League films, but we know little about those movies aside from who will direct (Zack Snyder) and who will be playing a majority of the heroes. But a new picture of Snyder and Aquaman actor Jason Momoa gives us our first look at some of the costumes that will be worn in the film.
Snyder has a tendency to tease his fans with obscure peaks of his characters on his Twitter account, so this image doesn't come as a huge surprise. One must assume Momoa and Snyder knew that the costumes could be seen in the background of the photo and posted the picture knowingly, with the intention of increasing excitement for the Justice League film. The film itself starts filming in April, so its understandable that the costumes have already been prepared, and Momoa and Snyder are both giving them a look.

Several items can be seen in the photo including a Batman cowl that may be different from the one he will wear in Dawn of Justice, and possible concept art of Aquaman's wife Mera (Played by Amber Heard) towards the bottom left. The first costume we see is a mysterious black suit, which may be the beginning stages of a Green Lantern suit (Possibly to be worn by Dan Amboyer?). The suit also bares a striking resemblance to the one worn by Aquaman's villain Black Manta, who has yet to be cast as far as we know.
The other two suits featured in the picture are much more obvious to point out, with one of them being Momoa's own Aquaman suit. While Snyder had already released a picture of Momoa's Aquaman last year, that photo only gave us a look at the upper half of the character. The suit in the picture seems to be much more complete and very reminiscent of the one in the comics. But of course, probably the most intriguing part of the picture is the inclusion of the Flash suit Ezra Miller will be wearing. It looks a lot like what we've seen in concept art, and it also has a much more armored look than what we're used to seeing on the CW TV show or in the comics.
So what do you think of the Flash and Aquaman costumes? Do you like the look Zack Snyder is going for? Let us know below!
