Clayface Budget Revealed for Mike Flanagan & James Watkins' DCU Movie
The estimated budget for the DCU movie has been revealed. Clayface arrives in United States theaters in September 2026. The DCU movie is produced by James Gunn and written by Mike Flanagan. It was recently announced that Speak No Evil's James Watkins had been tapped to direct the film. According to The Hollywood Reporter, the DCU Clayface movie will have a budget of $40 million. This is on the lower side of most comic book movies. Captain America: Brave New World, for example, has an estimated budget of around $180 million, while the exact budget for Gunn's Superman movie is not known. The 2019 Joker movie even had a slightly higher budget, as that was estimated to cost around the $55 million range. '[Clayface] is a Hollywood horror tale centering on a B-movie actor who injects himself with a substance to keep himself relevant, only to find out that he can reshape his face and form, becoming a walking piece of clay,' The Hollywood Reporter's article says regarding the film's plot. No casting for the Clayface movie has been released at this time. It's worth noting that Alan Tudyk voices Clayface in the DCU Creature Commandos series and that Gunn previously said that actors who voice major animated characters in DCU projects will also play them in live-action. Tudyk also voices Clayface in the animated Harley Quinn show, which is not set within the DCU. Gunn has also said that Tudyk will play a live-action character in the DCU; however, Tudyk voices multiple characters, so it is possible that he could have instead been referring to a live-action Doctor Phosphorus. Along with Gunn, the Clayface movie is produced by Peter Safran, The Batman's Matt Reeves, and Lynn Harris. Clayface will be released in United States theaters on September 11, 2026.

Resident Alien season 4: new network, plot twists, and release timeline
Resident Alien season 4 is gearing up for a return, with production currently underway in Vancouver and an estimated wrap date of March 31, 2025. Given previous production timelines, fans can expect a late summer or early fall 2025 release. A major change for the Alan Tudyk-led sci-fi comedy is its move from Syfy to USA Network, a decision aimed at expanding its audience and ensuring long-term viability. The series has already gained widespread popularity through streaming on Peacock and Netflix. Season 4 promises an action-packed storyline, focusing more on its extraterrestrial elements. The season 3 finale left fans with multiple cliffhangers: Tudyk's Harry Vanderspeigle was captured by the Greys, while the menacing Mantid assumed Harry's identity to infiltrate the town of Patience, Colorado. Tudyk will take on dual roles, playing both Harry and his villainous counterpart. The returning Resident Alien cast includes Sara Tomko, Alice Wetterlund, Corey Reynolds, Linda Hamilton, and Clancy Brown. Showrunner Chris Sheridan teased a darker, more intense season, embracing "more of the alien stuff," including human abductions, intergalactic conflicts, and a shapeshifting antagonist. The Mantid's ability to transform into anyone adds a thrilling mystery element, promising unexpected twists. Fans eagerly awaiting Resident Alien season 4 can catch up on previous seasons streaming on Peacock and Netflix.
