Flanagan, known for horror hits like 'The Haunting of Hill House', has long been eager to put his spin on Clayface, pitching the project to DC in 2023 as a 'horror/thriller/tragedy'.
The film will likely be the third on-screen take on Clayface in just a few years, with Alan Tudyk portraying the shape-shifting baddie in both the upcoming 'Creature Commandos' series and the Harley Quinn animated show - showcasing the villain's range from comedic sidekick to full-blown homicidal maniac.
