SpaceX CEO Elon Musk has enlisted the help of Hollywood superhero costume designer Jose Fernandez to create their space suit. Fernandez has worked on wardrobes for "Batman v Superman" as well as "Captain America: Civil War."

Inc. reported that SpaceX CEO Elon Musk has asked Jose Fernandez to design the company's space suits. The new suits are said to be almost ready to go and are expected to be unveiled within the next year.

Apparently, the company has requested Fernandez to design a helmet which he presented to Musk. The CEO chose it over the other four competitors and they spent six months in designing the suit.

Fernandez noted that Musk wanted the suits to be stylish and "heroic." The publication added that the public can expect it to "look less like Buzz Lightyear and more like Iron Man."

"SpaceX, the company run by Elon Musk, reached out to me to ask if I would create a space suit," Jose Fernandez told Bleep. "I didn't know what SpaceX was and I thought it was a film. Then I realized it's an actual space program."

"I worked with him for six months and at the end of that, we created a suit that they are now reverse-engineering to make functional for flight. The look they are going to unveil in the next few months is something we created here in the studio."

According to CNET, Jose Fernandez is a legendary costume designer, sculptor as well as helmet and armor designer. He is best known for creating costumes in films such as "Oblivion," "G.I. Joe: Retaliation," "Jupiter Ascending," "Tron: Legacy," "Thor" and "X-Men 2."

Meanwhile, Popular Mechanics reported that SpaceX has claimed that it will be able to send people in space by 2017. This comes after news that the Boeing Starliner will not carry crewed mission to the International Space Station (ISS) until 2018.
