A new trailer for the DCU's first all-out horror movie Clayface has arrived, and I've never been more excited to have nightmares about my own skin sticking together.
In the brief clip, which can be viewed above, Hollywood actor Matt Hagen (Tom Rhys Harries) makes the mistake of getting with a mobster's girlfriend, which results in a brutal attack that leaves him scarred and unable to work. He decides to undergo an experimental treatment, at the hands of trusted doctor Caitlin Bates (Naomi Ackie), that has some, uh, side effects. One of the side effects in question includes his eyelids beginning to stick together, and he quite literally cuts them apart on an airplane that's undergoing turbulence. David Cronenberg would be proud.
DC co-CEO Peter Safran recently confirmed that we've actually met Matt Hagen before, as the Clayface in the animated series Creature Commandos is indeed the one we're about to meet in live-action. Given how terrifying the DCU decided to animate Clayface (taking inspiration from his haunting, toothy design in Batman: The Animated Series), we're about to see something unimaginably terrifying on our screens come October, and I'm stoked.
James Watkins (Eden Lake) directs from a screenplay penned by Mike Flanagan and Hossein Amini. David Dencik, Max Minghella, and Eddie Marsan also star.
Clayface is set to hit theaters on October 23. Creature Commandos is streaming now in its entirety on HBO Max. For more, check out our guide to all of the upcoming DC movies and shows you need to know about.
