It may be surprising how many Marvel and DC superhero suits are actually CGI, but there are plenty of reasons why studios opt for them.
Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT CGI is used in Marvel Cinematic Universe and DC Universe films to create the fantastical nature needed for a superhero film, and that surprisingly extends to the hero suits the actors wear as well. From otherworldly villains to foreign planets in the galaxy, CGI is needed by the studios to translate the pages of a comic to the screen.
In his appearance on My Next Guest Needs No Introduction With David Letterman, MCU icon Robert Downey Jr. explained how he was completely blinded when wearing the original Iron Man helmet. By the time of Infinity War and Endgame, he asked for the helmet to be replaced with CGI. Batman star Christian Bale has also said that his Batsuit was incredibly uncomfortable, saying that it was hard to breathe with the cowl on and that the Batman helmet caused headaches .
Whether it’s the director or the studio themselves, design changes can happen after filming. Crafting a whole new practical suit and having the actor go through reshoots is just not feasible, and CGI is the huge solution to that issue. The most notable example is the practical Captain Marvel suit that Brie Larson wore in Avengers: Endgame.
Meinerding says that the decision to create the suits in post-production is generally just a way to save time and that some parts of production have to be done later on in the timeline when all the scenes are filmed. With how much studios change their minds about designs, it’s generally just easier and more efficient to make a suit digitally rather than physically.
