A new update regarding the DCU Clayface movie has emerged online.
After the debut of Superman, DC enthusiasts are now focusing on several forthcoming DC Universe ventures slated for 2026, such as Supergirl and Clayface. Notably, the latter film is being helmed by James Watkins with Tom Rhys Harries portraying the main antagonist, Clayface.
It’s anticipated that Clayface will start filming this autumn, with the movie set for a release in September 2026.
What is the new update on the Clayface DCU movie?
As reported by Nexus Point News, actor Rhys Harries is set to play Matt Hagen in the upcoming Clayface film. This version of Hagen will combine elements from Hagen’s own storyline with those of Basil Karlo, as portrayed in the character’s backstory.
According to our sources, Nexus Point News reports that Hagen, a rising star in the acting world, suffered a tragic attack that left him disfigured. Originally hailing from Gotham, he sought refuge in Hollywood to leave behind his troubled past and pursue an acting career. Unfortunately, his disfigurement put an end to his aspirations as an actor and eventually led to a transformation into a monster with shape-shifting abilities.
The piece additionally reveals that a fresh character, Dr. Caitlin Bates, is set to appear in the upcoming Clayface film.
According to the article, Bates serves as CEO for a pioneering biotech company aiming to develop advanced medicine and technology in the medical field. Bates views Hagen as an opportunity for expansion and treating his health issue. However, she finds herself developing romantic feelings for him while her partner John, a dedicated detective, begins to question their relationship. The movie’s villain will reportedly be a criminal mastermind, who shares similarities with Caitlin, John, and is another unique character introduced in the story.
As a devoted fan, I’ve learned from Nexus Point News that the upcoming film isn’t going to include any familiar DC superheroes you might recognize. Instead, it seems like we can expect an array of fresh, original characters taking center stage in this chilling, character-focused horror production.
Currently, DC Studios and Warner Bros. Pictures have scheduled the release of Clayface for September 11, 2026.
