If Ron Perlman is not doing the voice*, keep it.

*I assume the character will be CGI.

I feel like we’ve reached a point where it’s very much okay to slow down on making live action versions of animated characters. Preferable even.

Nah, let's approach the nineties again soon and go "A film based on a comic book? REALLY???" again.

For the 5 10th Kingdom fans in the house, every time I see Clayface, I think of Clayface the goblin who was in prison for the crime of carving.

Who…who is even the audience for this? WHY does DC think anybody wants this?! A superhero movie that is being marketed as a TRAGEDY??! What are these folks smoking.

It will probably be a low budget horror film. Flanagan is a relatively big name at least in terms of critical success when it comes to horror.

I’d love to see something interesting and actually scary done with a superhero/villain property, so I’d stream it if it got good buzz. I really liked that Werewolf by Night show Marvel did. Couldn’t be bothered to sit in a theater for it though, so mid budget would probably be wise.
