Anticipation is building for The Suicide Squad, as fans are eager to see James Gunn’s take on the film’s eclectic group of antiheroes and villains. After the film’s first trailers and promotional material, the visual and overall aesthetic have definitely been conveyed, and it’s safe to say that each character stands out on a sartorial level. A new series of tweets from Gunn break down the process of designing the costumes for the film — and which is his favorite. As Gunn puts it, the “sad-sack-soldier/b-grade supervillain-with-a-slightly-ill-fitting-outfit-&-goggles” outfit of Polka Dot Man (David Dastmalchian) was his personal favorite, because of how easily his vision for it translated onscreen.
I love them all, but I described Polka Dot Man’s sad-sack-soldier/b-grade supervillain-with-a-slightly-ill-fitting-outfit-&-goggles look to Judianna, & her team did ONE 1st design & that’s what it is today. Judianna can see in my brain! https://t.co/PemvEvxO4W
