The official teaser trailer for DC’s comic book horror movie Clayface is expected later today, and the first official poster has released in the meantime. Check it out down below!
DC is moving into body horror territory with Clayface, which will release only in theaters on October 23, 2026. The project is being compared to David Cronenberg’s The Fly.
James Watkins (The Woman in Black, Speak No Evil) directs from a script by Mike Flanagan (“The Haunting of Hill House,” Doctor Sleep) and Hossein Amini (Drive).
The story centers on an actor who injects himself with a substance to remain relevant, only to find out that he can reshape his face and form, becoming a walking piece of clay.
Max Minghella (Spiral: From the Book of Saw), Tom Rhys Harries (The Gentlemen) and Naomi Ackie (Blink Twice) star. Rhys Harries will be playing the movie’s title character.
James Gunn’s DC Studios co-CEO Peter Safran previously called Clayface “an incredible body horror film that reveals a compelling origin of a classic Batman villain.”
