James Gunn Shuts Down Daniel Radcliffe Clayface Casting Rumors

The DC Studios head confirms that no casting decisions have been made for the upcoming Clayface movie, set for a 2026 release.

James Gunn clarified on Threads that rumors of Daniel Radcliffe being cast as Clayface are '100% false.'
The Clayface movie is being written by Mike Flanagan and is expected to be directed by James Watkins, though his deal is still being finalized.
Casting for the film has not yet begun, as the director's contract has not been officially closed.
The movie, described as a 'body horror' take on the Batman villain, is scheduled for release on September 11, 2026.
Clayface, a classic Batman adversary introduced in 1940, will reportedly be portrayed in a non-villainous role in this standalone origin story.
