*DC Studios has released the first official trailer for “Clayface,” offering a chilling look at one of Batman’s most recognizable villains through the lens of psychological horror.
Rather than introducing Matt Hagen as a traditional comic book antagonist, the film tells the story of a rising actor whose life unravels after a devastating act of violence leaves him physically and emotionally shattered. The preview teases a descent fueled by trauma, identity, and revenge, positioning “Clayface” as one of the darkest projects in DC Studios’ growing slate.
Tom Rhys Harries stars as Hagen, whose journey begins far from Hollywood’s bright lights. Once a street kid in Gotham, he climbs to become a successful leading man before a local crime boss changes the course of his life. Horribly disfigured and abandoned by those around him, Hagen turns to an experimental medical treatment that restores his appearance but comes with terrifying consequences.
As the trailer reveals, the procedure does more than heal his scars. It fractures his grip on reality, sending him on a violent quest for vengeance while transforming him into the shape-shifting villain comic book fans know as Clayface.
