Costume is better, she's a little older, I think they shoud have recast!
Storm
Character » Storm appears in 10181 issues.
Born to an American photo journalist and Kenyan princess, Ororo Munroe is one of the most recognizabe superheroines in the Marvel Universe. Using her unique ability to see and manipulate natural energy patterns of the universe to summon any type of weather phenomenon she desires in the blink of an eye, she is called Storm.
Halle Berry (New Storm fit)
I like the hair! It suits Halle-- Not exactly Storm-- but it works! :D
The outfit is... okay-- but I will accept it because it looks like her Marvel Now costume! :D
That hair is boring. The colour is fine but she looks like Halle not Storm! She looks like a butch soccer mom not a dystopian future superhero. No me gusta.
I don't like the outfit.
She doesn't look sexy. She looks old. She doesn't look like she has a sexy body.
I don't like the hair. The long white hair makes Storm recognizable and Halle is ruining it. Halle looks more beautiful with the white hair. if she wants a short hair, she should go for the mohawk
I wonder who made the outfit because I can even make a better outfit than it.
If it's Singer directing the another film, don't expect lots of action. It['s gonna be like taking a while for them to use their powers. and we might not see the x-flyers like really flying. And the outfits are not gonna be good.
I hope I am wrong because I want X-men films to be the most successful among comic-based films.
I hope the next x-film won't be Singer.
I still hope Halle would go for the long white hair.
I was hoping for a long white mane too. She was denied good hair in the first and last X-men movies, X2 was ok but why is it so hard to give her the glorious hair she deserves. I also would have accepted a faux-hawk look to pay homage to that classic punk look, but no we got this...?
hmmm i dont think this is the FINAL costume, i am not an expert on fashion but it looks not finished i think its just a sample or draft something

Agreed. The short hair is a bit of a shock- It really, really is HALLE BERRY's version of Storm. Let's all be honest Halle looks hot with this hair-- it just doesn't look like Storm, really..
Hopefully, it's not ALL about the outfit-- and more about the acting, script, story and final product. Although I do wish it was a little less pilot/sci-fi and more casual xenogensis or punk storm look. Just sayin'
This look makes a lot of sense if they're using the "Days of Future Past" story line. Halle Berrys version of Storm will be set in the distant future, so she needs to appear a little older, at least 10 years older than what she was in X3. And I believe the costume is probably finished. We're not going to see her in something super sexy or flashy with the emblem "X" all over her because Storm and the X-men are being hunted and Mutants are either killed or placed in concentration camps. The X-men aren't sitting pretty in a mansion anymore they've gone underground to stay alive. As far as the hair, i'm not complaining. There's been a couple versions of Storm with very short hair including the Age of Apocalypse Storm, which is also set in the future. Now take another look at the costume and think of Storm as underground outcast/warrior, battling everyday to survive or maybe a Mutant version of Harriet Tubman lol.

I must say that this is one of the most sensible statements I have seen since the photo has been released. EXCELLENT EXCELLENT POST!!
I second the commentary of Captain Picard.
Question 1: Who is the costume designer?
Question 2: How does said costume designer continue to find work?
Statement 1: This better just be a teaser. There's no way in hell that someone would actually co-sign this get-up............no way............NO.....WAY
Question 3: Did her head actually get longer?!
Statement 2: Well, they solved one of our frustrations. "Halle's too short!", "Storm is supposed to be tall!" well.............. now the chick is 6'1
Statement 3: The last time I saw hair this lifeless was.......well......
Question 4: Why is it so hard to use GOOD synthetic hair? WHY?!
Statement 4: THE POINT IS NOT NOW, NOR HAS IT EVER BEEN THAT STORM'S HAIR SHOULD BE LONG. Storm has had a LARGE number of looks, and they all stand out in their own way. She's had SEVERAL short looks, and they have all looked fine for HER. The issue is that they tried to essentially follow my suggestion of staying with Halle's short haircut in real life, and CGing it white..............only they f*cked it up hella HARD. There's too much fullness!!
I actually kinda like it, It does have a war torn feel to it and she is bound to look older, it has been 7 years since x-men 3 and women age more than men looks wise, but I think it works well because of the fact that they are in a crazy future. plus lets not forget that it may look like this when the photo has been taken either on an Iphone or a camera but when its on film with all the other effects I bet it will win a fair few people over :D
Most of these insults puzzle me. Halle is playing Storm, so of couse the character is going to look like the actress playing her. Why are people complaining about her age if the movie is set in the future? Did they complain the guys in First Class were to young? (Technically some might have been too old)
I get some people don't like her skills or how the character looks, but I'm guessing her appearance is somewhat intentional.
Hey when did Storm leave Marvel for DBZ?
THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!
They need to KamehameGO with this bullsh*t
I ain't mad that she's older, and I ain't mad that she looks like Halle with white hair...........I'm angry over this looking rather terrible. The costume designer suffers from a severe lack of vision
I like the hair! It suits Halle-- Not exactly Storm-- but it works! :D
The outfit is... okay-- but I will accept it because it looks like her Marvel Now costume! :D
Poisonfleur.............I have NEVER made a threat against your life.............but if you continue telling these lies..............that will change..............it will change HELLA quick
Statement 1: This better just be a teaser. There's no way in hell that someone would actually co-sign this get-up............no way............NO.....WAY
indeed.
@butterflykyss: Thanks. I did my homework
@raylo85: LOL @ mutant Harriet Tubman!! LMFAO

AHAHAHAHAHAHHAAA!!^^ OH NO YOU DI'EN'T!!! I am laughing into pieces.
It looks like Storm is playing Halle Berry instead od Halle Berry playing Storm! Halle looks a bit aged, damit she's too old to play Storm!
I don't care, it reminds me of a mix between these two in a way. Maybe not the best two costumes to mash into one-- but it's working for me. Not to mention-- and let's not forget-- She IS a few months pregnant.
I am surprised a lot of people don't like it. I think the military look they're going for works for the dystopian future that the X-Men will be in. If they're going to be battling sentinels then they're going to need durable body suits, spandex doesn't really protect the body as much. The hair I actually like it looks like the perfect alternative to a Mohawk Storm looks much edgier and badass. I think when we see this on screen coupled with the magic of movie make-up and great cinematography she'll look much better. I can't wait to see her on-screen I just hope she is written better than she was in the previous movies. Here's hoping for a great Storm!
O_O. NO.
The hair. OMG - the hair is horrid....
Doesn't look to good :-/
[Bare with me}
Hmmm....I stare at this picture..
and the longer I stare, and try to find something good...the more infuriated I become X(
(considering all the factors: Halle's pregnancy; Brian's views of Storm; and this horrible get up/from head to toe) >>I know her character is gonna' be pure sh*t!
I'm stomped...I just..... don't understand!!!
with all that these people know about film and these characters...What possessed them to dip Halle in this sh*t and call it Storm
I tried to stop myself from ranting about this, like a crazed, wide eyed fan boy...
but I couldn't....
Somebody help me! LOL.....seriously -__-
@lykopis: ikr .. when i first saw that photo i was like WTFFFFFFF honestly she looks like catwoman from the future ... honestly storms hair keeps getting worse in the movies in x-1 they got the length right in x-2 not to sure but i liked the way the back was done but the mullet looked stupid in x-3 i liked the colour ... perhaps it should be a combo of all ? the lenght of x-1 the curls of x-2 and the couour and puffyness of x-3 :) i dont really know to much about hair so its just what i think should happen ... oh and i think they should loose the cape ... she doesnt wear a cape in DOFP and they better get her flying fight
-________________________________- in x-3 when they were in the danger room when she flew over to wolvering i thought she threw her back out ... isnt her flying supposed to be graceful?
So help me if they don't do a better job with her "flying." It's bad enough if they leave her hair like a troll doll -- which I am still hoping will be fixed. It's a behind-the-camera-shot so I am going to be positive and think there's hope.
