Costumes are an essential element of any superhero’s identity and that’s how they communicate their character with audiences to connect with them. Costume designers face an uphill battle right from the start, as fans can pretty vocal about what they expect. It is quite hard to withstand the realities of filming. Here we bring you seven actors who didn’t like their attire for superhero movies.
Ryan Reynolds, Green Lantern
CGI is one the most beautiful technical element in movie-making, it makes new worlds spring to life and brings people back from the dead. Hal Jordan’s suit in 2011 flops the Green Lantern. Computer generated from head to toe, fans lost their minds about how ridiculous it looked.
Margot Robbie, Suicide Squad
Jennifer Lawrence and Rebecca Romijn, X-Men
Paul Bettany, Captain America: Civil War
Andrew Garfield, The Amazing Spider-Man
The only way the actor could go to the bathroom was to take it off completely. Apparently, the mask was really hard to see out. But since spidey’s mask and eye shape are basically his trademark. everyone agreed that low visibility was a price they were willing to pay in order to stay true to the character.
Chadwick Boseman, Captain America: Civil War
So finally Black Panther made it to Captain America: Civil War. Played by Chadwick Boseman, the character shined in the movie, but what made him hard to scratch his skin is the Black Panther costume, which made him feel contained-in-it. And it was not easy for him to readjust the costume.
Olivia Munn, X-Men: Apocalypse
Olivia Munn has been appearing in the comics for years and she finally appeared as Psylocke in X-Men: Apocalypse. The character was criticized for her revealing dress, but what pissed off Munn the most was the costume, which was lubricated and hard to rip off.
