Man of Steel 2 costume designer Michael Wilkinson recently discussed Wonder Woman's costume, teasing what fans could expect from the Amazonian superhero. When asked by The Wrap if she would be wearing a skimpier outfit, like in the comics and TV show, Wilkinson suggested that that was probable.
"Absolutely. I mean, you just have to look at the gladiators from ancient Rome; they did their thing in little loincloths, and a spear and a shield," Wilkinson said. "It works for Thor, it works for 300 - so let's so what happens."

Wilkinson knows the importance of nailing down the best possible costume for Wonder Woman as the character makes her mainstream film debut.
"It's a thrilling and slightly scary prospect of course, but it's so important to get her right. She really deserves to be presented on screen in her full glory," he said, adding that he has considered her various looks in the past.
"Then we kind of put that aside and work out what is right for our film, our cinematic universe our director Zack Snyder is putting together - and we try to create a Wonder Woman that's relevant for today's audiences," he said.
Gadot is currently in training for the iconic superhero role, who is known for being slightly bulky. She has posted some photos of her progress which can be seen here.
Man of Steel 2 is scheduled for release in theaters on May 6, 2016.
