Key Takeaways:
– The DC Universe’s movie, “Clayface,” scheduled to release on November 26, 2029, is quickly making progress.
– Potential filmmakers to pitch to DC brass about directing the movie in the next week include Jeff Wadlow and James Watkins.
– On the other hand, fans are disappointed as they expected bigger names to direct the film like Gunn, Guadagnino, and Mangold, who are already directing some DC Universe films.
Hey there! I’ve got the latest hot off the press in the world of superheroes. It seems like we might have an idea who’s in the running to direct the upcoming DC Universe (DCU) movie, “Clayface.” These choices might not be the ones fans were hoping for, but they still deserve a shot. Let’s discuss!
DC’s “Clayface” Attracts Potential Directors
Now, this is exciting because “Clayface” is currently one of the hottest directing gigs in Hollywood. It’s like the golden ticket everyone wants but only the chosen will get. Who are the chosen ones you ask? Well, the buzz is that the names in the hat measure up to be Jeff Wadlow, known for his work in “Truth or Dare,” and James Watkins of the “Speak No Evil” fame.
Fan Reactions and Future Expectations
But, I must spill the tea – fans had been hoping for bigger names. You’d probably have heard about Gunn roping in some really cool A-list artists to direct a few of the future DCU films—people like himself for “Superman,” Luca Guadagnino for “Sgt. Rock,” and James Mangold for “Swamp Thing.” But as the wheel spins, things can change, and we hope it is for the best!
A Candid Look at The Contenders
Before we get too jumpy, let’s take a closer look at our contenders. Wadlow might come off as an odd pick. His work so far, to be frank, does not shine with hits. Movies like “Imaginary,” “Bloodshot,” “Fantasy Island,” “Truth or Dare,” “Cry Wolf,” and “Never Back Down” have had a lukewarm reputation. Can he pull it off with “Clayface”? Only time will tell.
Watkins, on the other hand, seems to balance the scales. His last year’s “Speak No Evil” remake received quite a bit of praise. Ever recall the underestimated goth-horror he directed in 2012 “The Woman in Black”? Yeah, that was him. He might just bring that charm to “Clayface,” and this has us excited!
Concluding Thoughts
I bet you don’t need a fortune cookie to tell you that DC is playing their cards close to their chest. No official decisions have been made yet, and it’s a waiting game for both us and the potential directors. But, if anyone’s game, it would be great to see them bring to life the masked anti-hero that’s “Clayface”.
So, are you hyped about it too? We are eager to know more about the project, the casting, and definitely, who will helm it! Let’s keep our fingers crossed and the popcorn ready for the “Clayface” action. Until then, keep your cape flying high and your superhero spirit up!
