Information reaching Kossyderrickent has it that Alexandra Byrne is costume designer for FANTASTIC FOUR.




Marvel’s Fantastic Four movie will have the same costume designer behind DC’s recent The Flash movie starring Ezra Miller with the return of the Michael Keaton Batman and the debut of the Sasha Calle Supergirl.


The info via the DiscussingFilm Twitter account (related to a Hollywood producer, I believe) says Alexandra Byrne is set as the costume designer for Fantastic Four.


In addition to The Flash, Alexandra Byrne is known for Doctor Strange, Avengers: Age of Ultron, the first Guardians of the Galaxy, 300: Rise of an Empire, The Avengers, the first Thor, and more. She won an Oscar in 2008 for Elizabeth: The Golden Age which stars Cate Blanchett and Clive Owen.


“Because Black Widow’s is a form fitting costume, it’s all about the body, and Scarlett’s got an amazing body! You have the joy of just enhancing everything she has. Of course you want her to be a strong woman too, and Scarlett brings that. With any costume there are huge practical requirements because of all the fight sequences and the action. But also it comes from a graphic novel so they need to have a heightened physicality in order to be believable as these extraordinary characters.”


“The comics use purple for Hawkeye. We integrated maroon his costume took on a combat look. Jeremy saw it early on, and clearly the arms are on view, so he worked out and built his arms. It’s a big undertaking to play a superhero, they worked really hard. You do a bit of fine-tuning to make it work on camera and some of the fabrics don’t give you the muscle cut that is reflective of the muscle physique. The seam, the bulge of the muscle, in some fabrics it gets quite neutralized. The majority of it is the actor.”
