The next movie in the growing DC Studios cinematic universe is Clayface. This movie was first pitched by filmmaker Mike Flanagan back in 2021 — who originally intended it to appear as a spinoff of Matt Reeves and Robert Pattinson’s The Batman, which technically takes place in a separate universe from Superman, Supergirl, and the rest of the DCU currently being built by James Gunn.

But did you now we’ve already seen the Clayface character featured in this new movie? Or at least a Clayface in the DCU? In our latest DC video, we’ll break down the first trailer for Clayface, tell you what you need to know about this character’s long DC history, and we’ll also discuss Clayface’s appearance in the animated Creature Commandos series, and how this movie (which is a prequel) connects to that show. Plus: We’ll get you familiar with all the parallels between this movie and Clayface’s most famous appearances, as a villain on the beloved Batman: The Animated Series.
