“After a long and incredibly exhaustive search, we finally have our DCU Clayface in Tom Rhys Harries. Both Matt Reeves and I were just blown away by this guy, and can’t wait for you to see this film, directed by James Watkins and written by Mike Flanagan.”

Gunn’s announcement sparked mixed reactions across the DC fanbase. While many were thrilled by the casting and the creative team involved, others expressed concern over DC’s decision to center a film around a Batman villain instead of focusing on the broader Justice League lineup.

One excited fan wrote:

“James Gunn and Matt Reeves impressed by him? Must’ve been outrageously impressive! So damn hyped.”

Another, however, was more skeptical:

“Gunn, I’m a fan of your movies, especially GOTG, but is it wise to suddenly do Batman villain-centric films when you could be focusing on building up the main heroes of the Justice League? I’m not at all enthusiastic about a Clayface film.”
