DC’s Clayface movie finds its director as the villain-centered DCU project advances in production. Set to release on September 11, 2026, the DCU’s upcoming Clayface movie will follow the titular shapeshifting character, who was previously introduced in animated form in Creature Commandos episode 5. Clayface will be DC’s next live-action project based on a single villain after Lauren LeFranc’s The Penguin and Todd Phillips’ Joker, though it will be the first project of this kind in James Gunn’s DCU. While the DCU’s Batman could appear in Clayface, Clayface is more likely to be a standalone story.
Almost exactly one year and a half before Clayface‘s scheduled release date, THR reports that Clayface has officially found its director in Speak No Evil‘s James Watkins. Watkins joins writer Mike Flanagan, producer Matt Reeves, and DC Studios heads James Gunn and Peter Safran, all of whom will oversee their respective areas of Clayface‘s development and production. Whether voice Actor Alan Tudyk will reprise his Creature Commandos role is yet to be confirmed.
