First Images From The Black Comedy 'Birdman' Starring Michael Keaton

Keaton followed by Beetlejuice Batman Birdman

Let me start by saying this is not a superhero movie in the common sense. The story follows an old actor (played by Michael Keaton) who is famous for playing an iconic superhero (Birdman) in a movie who is struggling to mount a Broadway play, and has to deal with his family and his ego. I'm excited for this movie, and I love Keaton.

These images show Keaton being followed by his superhero character in the streets of New York. It's unclear whether Birdman is just a figment of Keaton's imagination, or someone dressed as Birdman is actually following him. I'm leaning towards the first one. But, the detail on the suit is amazing, and the costume designer should be proud.
