Clayface, the upcoming DC Studios film, is poised to be a game-changer after the recent box office and critical setbacks of Supergirl. The trailer hints at a brutal horror origin story for the classic Batman villain, Matt Hagen, played by Tom Rhys Harries. The film's logline promises a harrowing tale of disfigurement, revenge, and a twisted journey into reality. The R-rated movie, directed by James Watkins and written by Mike Flanagan and Hossein Amini, is set to open in theaters on October 23. The trailer showcases a disturbing scene of Matt using scissors to remove skin blocking his eye on a moving airplane, leaving viewers with a sense of foreboding. The haunting soundtrack of The Flaming Lips' 'Do You Realize??' adds to the unsettling atmosphere. The film's cast also includes Naomi Ackie and Max Minghella, adding to the anticipation. With its blend of body horror and psychological thriller elements, Clayface is shaping up to be a dark and twisted addition to the DC Universe, offering a fresh take on a familiar villain and a potential turning point for the studio.
