I don’t know the actor, but love a curveball. He wasn’t even on the shortlist.
Depending on how closely this is following the BTAS episodes, I’ll be curious who they go after for Roland Daggett.

I wouldn't be surprised if this is mostly set in Los Angeles.
Depends of whether or not Gunn wants to wait until Brave And The Bold to introduce Gotham. He might not want to commit to a look for Gotham that early.
Peter Safran was telling me a little bit about Clayface and how the hope is to start filming at some point this year, assuming that the script is in this good place. [In the weeks following this interview, Gunn announced Tom Rhys Harries in the lead role.]
The new script is great. It's great. I mean, the first script was great, and then this new draft is even better.... The movie's definitely getting made.
What goes into a decision to bring Clayface into the DCU versus an Elseworlds title?
Well, I think it was just we needed DCU content. Mike Flanagan is somebody who I've been friendly with for a long time, and he wrote me about Clayface. He texted me about it really early on in my DC journey. Just being honest, I did not think that was something that was going to happen, but he came in and he pitched the idea and I was like, "Oh s---! That's cool." It's a body horror movie. It's a horror movie that, like any cool body horror movie, just happens to be in the DCU. And then he wrote the script, and the script was fantastic. We did not plan to do Clayface. That was really something he brought to us.
Because this is DCU, is this the same Clayface that we met in Creature Commandos?
I think that everyone will find that out.
Or its a focus of the current rewrites.Flanagan could've just written a story with Batman in it though, minimally or not.

There's some Bowie vibes in that face. That's a plus for me.
to the episode, the character of Clayface in the film will be named Matt Hagen as amalgamation of Hagen with Basil Karlo’s backstory.
Sources tell Nexus Point News that Hagen is a handsome, up and coming actor who’s attacked and disfigured. Originally from Gotham, he moves to Hollywood to escape his troubled past and begin a career as an actor. With his disfigurement, his career and outlet as an actor is ruined and is eventually transformed into a shapeshifting monster.
Hagen’s love interest and co-star in the film is scientist, Dr. Caitlin Bates, an original character created for the film. Bates is the CEO of a biotech startup seeking to create cutting edge medicine and medical technology. Bates sees Hagen as a way to grow her company and cure his condition. Throughout the process she falls in love with him while her fiance John grows suspicious of their relationship. John is a detective and committed to Caitlin and his job. The antagonist of the film is set to be a crime boss, who like Caitlin and John, is another original character. At the moment, the film is not set to feature any recognizable DC characters and will primarily consist of original characters in this character driven horror film.
