DC Studios Dates ‘Clayface’ For Fall 2026; Animated ‘Dynamic Duo’ For 2028

Signs that Warner Bros DC Studios is very serious about its standalone Clayface movie even though it doesn’t have a director or star yet: The studio is given the movie written by Mike Flanagan a Sept. 11, 2026 theatrical release. That’s the famed post Labor Day gold mine weekend for Warner Bros with such movies as the It, The Nun and Beetlejuice franchises.
Producing is DC co-bosses James Gunn and Peter Safran as well as The Batman filmmaker Matt Reeves and Lynn Harris. EP is Chantal Nong. Doctor Sleep filmmaker Flanagan is reportedly conceiving Clayface as a horror-thriller-tragedy. He won’t be painted as a villain which has been his reputation, notoriously a villain to Batman.
Clayface got his DC introduction as part of Detective Comics #40 in June of 1940. The original Clayface was a moderately successful actor who adopted the identity of a character he’d portrayed in a horror pic after turning to crime.
