Horror writer and director Mike Flanagan just revealed some exciting details about his vision for DC Studios' upcoming Clayface movie. Although 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:his script is being rewritten and the proj🦂ect is out of his hands, Flanagan got fans excited by revealing his main influence while writing – the two-part episode Feat of Clay from the beloved animated show✤ Batman: The Animated Series.

"Of coursﷺe it was. I mean that is the perfect [story]," Flanagan told when asked about his inspirations. "Feat of Clay, Ron Perlman, to me, that's it. That two-parter knocked me out. The short answer is that is absolutely what inspired my script. That is the world I wanted to live in. Batman: The Animated Series when I was growing up was ✅my Batman. As much as [Michael] Keaton was my Batman, The Animated Series really was my Batman."

Feat of Clay is a two-part story incl꧟uded in season 1 of Batman: The Animated Series (episodes 4 and 5) in 1992, and follows the origins of Clayface. First featured in the DC comics in June 1940🐼, the story follows actor Matt Hagen as he turns to a life of crime after suffering a tragic accident and taking on the personality of one of his horror roles through an experiment. He is made from a strange, clay-like substance.

Best known for his work in hit series like The Haunting of Hill House and Midnight Mass, Flanagan's version of Clayface was said to be leaning more into the character's horror aspects, but it's hard to say at this point how much of that will remain. "I don't know what they're doin🍌g with Clayface," he clarified.

"I'm not directing it, and that filmmaker will need to make it their own," Flanagan continued, "I know that they're doing work on the script. I'm💛 off doing other things now, I really hope it remains true to the spirit of what I wanted it to be. But it's not my movie, so I'll be in the audience with you, anxious to see how it comes out."
