Description
Tom Rhys Harries spoke to HeyUGuys at the Clayface Junket in London, where the Welsh actor behind Matt Hagen weighed in on the question every DC fan is asking: who wins, Clayface or Batman? Harries has a one-line verdict, delivered with total conviction. He also talked about working alongside fellow Welshman Rob Brydon, who he says takes a deeply unsettling dark turn in the film, and what it’s like to go from Cardiff to the Hollywood treatment, including an appearance on Jimmy Kimmel. He joked that the Clayface makeup took 18 hours, then revealed the real figure and the fidgety truth behind it.
Interviews for Clayface at the Junket. The film stars Tom Rhys Harries, Naomi Ackie, David Dencik, Max Minghella, Eddie Marsan, Nancy Carroll and Joshua James, it was written by Mike Flanagan and Hossein Amini and directed by James Watkins. Freda Cooper asks the questions.
Plot: Matt Hagen's meteoric rise from Gotham street kid to Hollywood leading man is cut short when a local crime boss's actions leave him horribly disfigured. Abandoned by his team, Matt seeks out a cutting-edge treatment that miraculously restores him, but it also warps his grip on reality and sends him spiralling into a destructive path of all-consuming revenge.
Clayface will be released on 23rd October 2026.
