Clayface Stars Praise Batman: The Animated Series and Ron Perlman's 'Amazing' Performance as the DC Villain
Clayface stars Tom Rhys Harries and Naomi Ackie were big fans of Batman: The Animated Series growing up in the UK, recalling how they would rush home to watch it after school.
Tom Rhys Harries and Naomi Ackie, who starred as Clayface in a DC film, both fondly remembered watching Batman: The Animated Series as children in the United Kingdom. Ackie shared that watching the show was a daily routine after school, with the program ending at 3:30 PM. Horrortale director Mike Flanagan's original script for Clayface was directly influenced by the Batman: The Animated Series episode "Feat of Clay," which reimagined the origin of Clayface.
Rhys Harries praised voice actor Ron Perlman, stating that Perlman's performance as Clayface was exceptional. Ackie agreed, noting that Perlman's portrayal was truly remarkable, especially during Clayface's transformation and his dialogue with Batman in the famous "I don't know who I am" exchange. The actors emphasized the tragic nature of Clayface's character, appreciating that the tragic aspect of his story was both heartbreaking and terrifying.
