Clayface writer reveals he was inspired by one of DC's most iconic animated series: "That two-parter knocked me out"

Matt Hagen.

Horror writer and director Mike Flanagan just revealed some exciting details about his vision for DC Studios' upcoming Clayface movie. Although his script is being rewritten and the project is out of his hands, Flanagan got fans excited by revealing his main influence while writing – the two-part episode Feat of Clay from the beloved animated show Batman: The Animated Series.

"Of course it was. I mean that is the perfect [story]," Flanagan told ComicBook when asked about his inspirations. "Feat of Clay, Ron Perlman, to me, that's it. That two-parter knocked me out. The short answer is that is absolutely what inspired my script. That is the world I wanted to live in. Batman: The Animated Series when I was growing up was my Batman. As much as [Michael] Keaton was my Batman, The Animated Series really was my Batman."
