>Rising actor Matt Hagen (Tom Rhys Harries) volunteers for an experimental medical procedure to restore his appearance after gangsters disfigure his face. The experiment is conducted by Dr. Caitlin Bates (Naomi Ackie), the controversial CEO of a biotech startup seeking to create cutting edge medical technology. Bates initially sees curing Hagen as a way to grow her company, but the two ultimately fall in love. At first, the experiment is successful, but soon Hagen’s body begins to transform into a clay-like substance that can reshape itself into anyone’s appearance. Bates’s fiancé, police detective John Miller (Max Minghella), grows suspicious of her relationship with Hagen at the same time as he investigates the gruesome murders of the gangsters responsible for Hagen’s disfigurement.https://www.imdb.com/title/tt34890576/
>>214196528could be interesting ngl
>>214196528>Darkman remake
>>214196528>DC's The Substance If he's not an 8-foot tall mud monster at LEAST by the end of the movie, I don't care.
>>214196528What a dumb fucking move from DC. They should have made a WW or green lantern or Batman movie next
>>214196698The writer said BTAS has been the inspiration for he'll probably look the part
>>214196735We had recent WW and Batman movies. Make something different at this point. GL could've been done, true, but it's going to be a tv show.
>>214196528>Clayface movie>it's just DarkmanVery creative, guys...
>>214196581not really, I'm tired of villains being antiheroes. can they just appear as antagonists in films without being killed off at the end? they can even be tragic villains, which is what most of batman's rogue gallery is supposed to be>>214196616this
>>214196528>and then at the end Clayface gets RAPED
>>214196805>it's darkman cause he's got his head in bandages!
>>214196807I don't know if he's going to be an anti-hero, remains to be seen. But that's his comic book origin, more or less. He's a failed actor who gets turned into a monster and goes insane.
>>214196807it's going to be a horror movie so we don't know if he'll be a hero but he's one of batman's more tragic villainsthis is in contract with the joker who they tried making relatable when he's just a piece of shit
How does this shit get greenlit? A Clayface (C list Batman villain) but butchered in the name of realism so that its basically a Darkman remake instead of actually Clayface.
>>214196849Darkman also changes his appearance to imitate others.
>>214196951It's really cheap, the script was good, and horror sells.
>>214197009Clayface predates Darkman, himself a pastiche of The Shadow. There are similarities of course, but the movie will probably be different overall.
>>214197047Don't waste your breath educating these faggotsHe hasn't seen darkman the shadow or know who clayface is. He lives through references picked up through osmosis
>>214196528>Inspired by BTAS' Clayface episodes>R-rated body horrorcould be kino
>>214197107I think so too, and even if they go with the "tragic monster" route, I wouldn't mind, since Clayface is one of those characters unlike most of the villains they've tried to pull the Frankenstein stick with so far.
>>214196528I hope he actually becomes clay monster and it isn't just some cop-out to keep it 'grounded'
>>214196616Darkman is a hero.
