    For that costume I don't see anything wrong with using the generic jumpsuit from first class, with some X's here and there. Or a male variation of negasonic costume. Avengers costumes were adaptations of ultimate avengers and modern costumes, not trying to emulate iconic old costumes to please a niche group of fans...

    Damn, that visor, though... No. It's SO thick. Tyeclops won't even be able to emote with his eyebrows. I guess he'll have to work up to the X2 visor but still...

    An article with the new spot embedded.
    http://comicbook.com/marvel/2016/04/...s-new-costume/

    I like the idea of seeing Cyclops in an adapted "New Mutants" costume ala Negasonic Teenage Warhead in DEADPOOL or even a version of the "FIRST CLASS" suits as shown in this Deviant Art manip

    When it comes to adapting a look from the books, the 2 below would be high on my list of looks that are ready made to translate well to the big screen.

    Let's just call this the "prototype" visor with a distinctly 80s aesthetic.

    You mean 'big and gaudy'?
    I love slender visors that don't cover much of the face apart from the vital eyes.

    Revealed in the expanded footage teaser (perhaps giving too much away now.) Looks better full length

    Completely agree. It just looks silly, along with this uniform, but then again I haven't seen the whole thing so I might be wrong about that.

    Nope, it looks just as bad as I imagined. I don't like Storm's either. Jean's okay but overall, don't like them much. I won't even get into what Mystique's looks like, especially the lower half. ECK!!!

    Since it's probably from the final scene of the movie it shouldn't matter much that he should emote all that much, it's probably gonna be redesigned by the next movie anyway. Overall i like the way he looks with costume as a whole.

    They are all horrible, but I think Cyke's is the least horrible(aside from the facescreen). At least its a nod to his Jim Lee that is still visible. Jean and Storm's are a mess, and barely register as their Jim Lees. Nightcrawler and Mystique take the cake, though. Wow. Singer, get a new costume designer...
    Let the flames destroy all but that which is pure and true!

    But if you'll check X-men Apocalypse full cast on imdb.com: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt3385516/

    Joanne Boland - Mrs. Summers
    Ryan Hollyman - Mr. Summers

    I've tried opening the larger version of the group shot on two computers now and all I get is a popup and the barest bit of the top of the pic. Could someone host the full thing somewhere else, please?

    From what I can see, Jean is definitely in a 90s-inspired costume, as is Scott.
