DC Studios is stepping into horror with Clayface, a new genre-driven take on the Gotham City villain set to arrive in theaters on October 23.
Directed by James Watkins, the film stars Tom Rhys Harries in the title role, alongside Naomi Ackie, David Dencik, Max Minghella, and Eddie Marsan.
The screenplay comes from Mike Flanagan and Hossein Amini, based on a story by Flanagan. Producing credits include Matt Reeves, Lynn Harris, James Gunn, and Peter Safran.
Clayface centers on a rising Hollywood actor whose life begins to unravel, leading to a transformation into a figure driven by revenge. The narrative explores themes of identity, ambition, and the consequences of scientific experimentation, positioning the character within a darker, more grounded framework.
