Thescreescore – New set photos from the upcoming DCU Clayface film offer a chilling glimpse of Tom Rhys Harries as the titular villain. While the Batman mythos is weaving its way into the larger DCU tapestry, audiences will get a disturbingly close encounter with one of the Dark Knight’s most formidable foes before the Caped Crusader even gets his own solo film. This 2026 installment, directed by James Watkins from a script by Mike Flanagan, is currently filming in Liverpool, UK. Images obtained by the Daily Mail showcase Harries, the only prominent actor visible, sporting a truly horrifying mask, concealing the damage from a catastrophic accident. The scene depicts his character evading a press scrum, a desperate attempt to avoid the public eye. Further images, courtesy of @JackkDoylee, reveal a detailed Gotham City map, highlighting iconic locations such as Wayne Manor, Arkham Asylum, and Crime Alley, hinting at a rich, interconnected DCU. These images, available at thescreescore.com, paint a grim picture, suggesting a horror-tinged approach before the story fully embraces the monstrous elements of Clayface’s powers. The focus on a struggling Hollywood actor, desperately trying to remain relevant, adds a layer of intrigue, suggesting the disfigurement may predate his shapeshifting abilities. This R-rated horror adventure promises to be a standout entry in the DCU’s "Gods and Monsters" chapter, offering a fresh take on the superhero genre. The film’s unique premise and James Gunn’s expansion of the Gotham City universe make Clayface a must-see for fans.
