Kevin Smith Describes Ben Affleck Batman Costume, Plus New Set Images from Batman v Superman Dawn of Justice

Filming on Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice continues, which means set reports and teases continue to trickle out from Michigan. The latest reports describe Ben Affleck's Batman costume and some photos show construction of a new set.

Kevin Smith dropped some new details about the Batsuit on the latest Fat Man on Batman podcast with Neal Adams. Smith pointed to a statue from The Dark Knight Returns: Hunt for The Dark Knight and said "They're doing that one for the next movie. Like, he looks like that." When Adams mentioned the fan film Batman: Dead End, Smith said, "I'm telling you, that's what they're doing in this new movie Batman movie. It's him in material. None of this body armor sh*t."

Some fans had already pieced this together, as the photo of Ben Affleck in the suit showed some wrinkles in the cloth.

And speaking of Kevin Smith, Movieweb.com recently received an email from "an anonymous source deep with the Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice production" who claims Warner Bros. hired the writer/director to write a fake script for the movie. The plan was to leak this script online to throw people off the scent.

In related news, Comic Book Movie has collected some set photos from Corktown in Detroit. The crew is building something, but it's unclear what it is. Take a look at the photos and venture a guess.
