“I have no idea who you are anymore!” Warner Bros & DC Studios revealed the final official trailer for the Clayface movie, a standalone DC movie set in Gotham City. Arriving in theaters soon this October for horror season. This is the first ever DC horror thriller, based on the comic book character of Clayface from the Batman universe. The movie is a creepy body horror story about an up-and-coming actor whose face is disfigured by a gangster. As a last resort, he turns to a scientist who transforms his body into clay. Exploring “the loss of one’s identity and humanity, corrosive love, and the dark underbelly of scientific ambition.” Tom Rhys Harries stars as Matt Hagen who becomes “Clayface”, with Eddie Marsan, Max Minghella, Naomi Ackie, David Dencik, Nancy Carroll & Joshua James. It’s produced by The Batman’s Matt Reeves and features a screenplay co-written by horror filmmaker Mike Flanagan. The first teaser is still the best preview so far, the last trailer was okay, but this final trailer looks like it actually might deliver on being a thrilling anti-hero story of a man becoming a comic book villain. Hopefully this ends up being pretty good.
Here’s the final trailer (+ poster) for James Watkins’ DC horror movie Clayface, direct via WB’s YouTube:
