On Thursday, the DC Studios boss took to Threads to shoot down reports that Daniel Radcliffe would take the lead as the titular supervillain in the upcoming Mike Flanagan -written, James Watkins -directed movie, which is set for a Sept. 11, 2026 premiere.

While the DCEU (which is streaming with a Max subscription) ended with Aquaman 2, co-CEO James Gunn is forming a brand new DC Universe. One of the many upcoming DC movies is the Clayface flick, which James Watkins is expected to direct.

James Gunn debunked a Clayface movie casting rumor, but another possible contender for the role of the Batman villain has allegedly emerged.

Safran has characterized the “Clayface” movie as a “body horror film.” Gunn previously said DC Studios hopes the movie “works as a pure horror movie for somebody who doesn’t care at all about DC.” Warner Bros. has dated “Clayface” for release on Sept. 11, 2026.

James Gunn offers a definitive response to the rumors that Daniel Radcliffe has been cast in a DC Universe movie that was recently confirmed.
