Starfire
Call me a comic book purist, but Anna Diop’s Starfire is absolutely horrendous. She looks absolutely nothing like Starfire from the comics. For reference here is the image of Starfire DC Comics used to promote the casting announcement of Anna Diop.
As you can see Starfire has orange skin and her hair is wavy and long. It’s not a red dyed weave. Also what in the world is Anna Diop wearing? Why is she wearing some kind of fur coat? I hope that’s just to keep her warm while filming in Toronto.
The only thing that even resembles Starfire in that photo is she is wearing the color purple. Nothing else in the photo actually informs you that that’s Starfire. If we didn’t already know Anna Diop is Starfire, my guess is we wouldn’t have a clue what character she was playing.
Former DC Comics artist David Williams said, “Starfire looks like someone from love and Hip Hop.
Beast Boy
As for Beast Boy, why in the world is he wearing a sweatshirt? Also why isn’t his skin painted green as well? What is going on here? At least they did get his color scheme right with the sweatshirt and his hair looks somewhat respectable. But as I look closer at Ryan Potter’s hair why does the green dye stop above his ears. Why isn’t all of his hair green? Was it too expensive to do all of his hair or get a wig?
Raven
Raven might be the most comic book accurate. However, I’m still disappointed she doesn’t have some cool buttons on her outfit and on her belt. It looks like she has a sash on.
David Williams wasn’t the only one dissatisfied with the costume designs.
Can i just say I’m disappointed by her hair??

I really wish we had something like this. I’ve never been so disappointed. The last time I was this disappointed was with Medusa in Inhumans but at least her wig was made to look somewhat like her. I’m so sorry Starfire and Anna. They both deserve better. ???

Nothing fits here, not even she, now dont take me wrong I have nothing against her but I fkng hate when they completely change a character just to be politically correct??

What heck are they doing over there ? This shows supposed to be capturing the accuracy of the comic books. This is objectively trash. I’ll wait and see the final product and stuff.

Raven looks awkward though.

Are they gonna give Beast Boy green skin?

What do you make of Starfire, Beast Boy, and Raven? Do you think they are as hideous as me or do you think there’s a chance they can make these designs work in post?
