Description:
Horror icon Mike Flanagan has written a movie all about Clayface.
FULL STORY ======================================================================Mike Flanagan has written a script for a DC movie about Clayface, and a director has not yet been named Filming on the project is expected to begin in early 2025 Flanagan revealed he is keen to do a standalone Clayface movie as a "horror/thriller/tragedy"
Following the monumental success of one of the best Max shows The Penguin , there's news that a standalone Clayface movie is in the works, with a screenplay written by one of the most exciting filmmakers out there, Mike Flanagan. Filming on the movie is expected to commence in early 2025, according to reports by Variety .
As someone who loves the darker side of DC, I am very keen to see Flanagan's take on Clayface. He's already terrified me with his Stephen King adaptation Doctor Sleep as well as some of the best Netflix shows like The Haunting of Hill House and Midnight Mass .
Flanagan has really made a name for himself in the horror genre, but as he's busy doing a Carrie TV series for Prime Video , he won't be in the director's chair for this one. So it'll be interesting to see who takes the reins for
the recently greenlit DC project. What do we know about the Clayface movie?
At the time of writing, we don't have much to go off just yet. But Flanagan has teased that he was keen to make it a "horror/thriller/tragedy", so it seems he's keen to keep up his reputation as a writer with a keen eye for the macabre.
The Batman and The Penguin creator Matt Reeves will be producing the movie, and that's about all we know right now. Casting remains a mystery too so
we'll need to wait and see who takes on the role of this iconic and
underrated Batman villain.
The shapeshifting Clayface has previously been played by Ron Perlman in Batman: The Animated Series and by Brian McManamon in the TV series Gotham , but this movie will mark the first time he's really taken center stage and
I'm keen to see who the role is given to next.
