February 10, 2018: Black Suit Superman Concept Art from "Justice League: Mortal"

Concept artist Matt Hatton shared the following image of Superman on his Instagram account.

Matt worked on the never-made "Justice League: Mortal" movie project, which was being directed by George Miller. He explains, "So about a decade ago I worked on the George Miller version of Justice League. Here's a black suited Supes way before the Snyderverse. He was floating above a funeral - in that one it was Bats not Supes who'd 'died' (but not really)!"

So about a decade ago I worked on the George Miller version of Justice League. Here's a black suited Supes way before the Snyderverse. He was floating above a funeral - in that one it was Bats not Suped who'd 'died' (but not really)! #conceptart #justiceleague #justiceleaguemortal #superman #georgemiller #supermanblacksuit #matthatton

Miller s Justice League again - I did a Supes sans the red undies too as you see here which caused a bit of consternation! It does streamline him and make him look nice and tall. Also worked on Superman Returns and had some personal/subjective ideas about the balance of that costume too! =ÿÞ #conceptart #matthatton #justiceleague #justiceleaguemortal #georgemiller #superman

Cotrona as Superman, Armie Hammer as Batman, Megan Gale as Wonder Woman, Adam Brody as The Flash, rapper/actor Common as Green Lantern, Hugh Keays-Byrne as Martian Manhunter, Santiago Cabrera as Aquaman, Jay Baruchel as Maxwell Lord, and Teresa Palmer as Talia al Ghul.
