“James Gunn Defends Clayface Movie: 'Public Voting Isn't the Only Way to Make a Film'” — what this page in the network covers. DC Studios co-chief James Gunn has responded to criticism over the upcoming Clayface movie, asking 'who tf asked for a Clayface movie' on Threads. Gunn countered by listing iconic films like Back to the Future, Casablanca, and The Matrix that weren't born from public demand. He emphasized that audience polling is not the only path to creating great cinema.
The Clayface film, written by Mike Flanagan and set for release on September 11, 2026, is part of DC's new slate under Gunn and Peter Safran. Gunn's defense highlights his belief in creator-driven projects over fan service. With a modest budget and a horror tone, the movie aims to prove that lesser-known characters can succeed.
