Mike Flanagan to Write Clayface Movie for DC Studios

The Batman villain's standalone film is officially greenlit, with production set to begin in early 2025.

  • Mike Flanagan, known for his work in horror, has been tapped to write the script for a Clayface movie for DC Studios.
  • The film will center on the shapeshifting Batman villain, with Matt Reeves and Lynn Harris producing under their company 6th & Idaho Productions.
  • Flanagan first pitched the project in 2023, describing it as a horror/thriller/tragedy, but he will not direct due to other commitments, including an Exorcist reboot and a Carrie TV series.
  • Filming is expected to start in early 2025, though DC Studios is still searching for a director for the project.
  • There is speculation about whether the film will connect to Matt Reeves' The Batman series or exist as a standalone story in the DC Universe.
