One of the things fans are pumped up about "Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice" is the Dark Knight's costume. The hero in the upcoming movie will be the same version as the one in Frank Miller's "Dark Knight Returns" but there will be a bit of overhauling to happen.

Warner Bros. concept artist Jerad Marantz was ecstatic to share on Facebook a couple of photos of the Batman concept idea, which costume designer Michael Wilkinson made into a full-fledged breath-taking costume for the upcoming DC Comics film adaptation.

"Here are some of the images that I painted for Batman v Superman. I was fortunate enough to spend a bit of time on all of the characters, but was lucky enough to be able to focus on illustrating the new Batman costume with the incredible costume designer Michael Wilkinson," Marantz wrote.

The artist added that his concept being the basis of what essayer Ben Affleck aka Bruce Wayne will be wearing as he saves people and battle Superman in the much-awaited superhero flick was "a childhood dream come true."

Meanwhile, a new version of the synopsis for "Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice" was published by UK Odeon cinema chain, revealing more about the plot. As it turns out, Clark Kent and Bruce Wayne have mutual hate toward each other, with the former having no trust in the "mysterious masked vigilante."

As they battle it out and try to kill each other, Lex Luthor is enjoying the show as he takes advantage of the superheroes' rage and power for himself and for something far more sinister.

"Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice" will be out March 25, 2016. It sets up the formation of the Justice League with some of the superhero members to show up in the film. Affleck plays Batman while Henry Cavill reprises his role as Superman. Jesse Eisenberg, Gal Gadot and Jason Momoa also star.
