It is technically a Batman-ish movie, SO…

Via the fine folks at Warner Bros. and DC Studios, here’s the first trailer and poster for the upcoming DC horror film, CLAYFACE.

DC Studios’ first-ever foray into the genre, CLAYFACE is a riveting horror thriller from director James Watkins, starring Tom Rhys Harries in the title role of the Gotham City villain.  CLAYFACE unravels one man’s horrifying descent from rising Hollywood star to revenge-filled monster in a story that explores the loss of one’s identity and humanity, corrosive love, and the dark underbelly of scientific ambition.

Disturbing, right?

Look, I’m not a big fan of anything fantastical when it comes to Batman, but since this isn’t part of Matt Reeves’ Batverse — though he and his production company are producing this film — I’m OK with it. In fact, I’m very much looking forward to seeing it.

The DCU Batman, though? Not so much. – Bill “Jett” Ramey

Bill “Jett” Ramey isn’t just a Batman fan — he’s one of the founding fathers of the online Batman community. As the creator and Editor-in-Chief of Batman-On-Film.com, the original and longest-running Batman news and commentary site, Jett helped carve the very bedrock of modern fan internet press. A lifelong Dark Knight disciple, Jett has spent decades championing filmmaker‑driven Batman stories, cutting through fanboy noise with a Texas‑sized dose of honesty, and keeping the conversation smart, civil, and drama‑free. He’s the BOF Godfather — the guy who was here before the hashtags, before the clickbait, before the algorithms… and he’s still here, still talking Batman, still calling it straight. When he steps out of Gotham, Jett is pure Texas. He bleeds Dallas Cowboys blue, blasts Elvis and rock ’n’ roll, and has a deep appreciation for cold beer, dive bars, and Texas Longhorns football. He works out, he cooks, and he can grill like a man who’s earned the right to say “don’t assume” when he tells you he lives in the great state of Texas. He shares that home with his wife — “Announcer Rachel” — and their dogs: Gracelin the Labradoodle and Presley, a rescue pup named after the King himself.
