Aaron Paul Makes Surprise Cameo in DC’s Clayface
Three-time Emmy winner Aaron Paul has a blink and you’ll miss it cameo in the new DC movie Clayface. Now, the film’s director, James Watkins, has revealed why the Breaking Bad and Westworld star is in DC’s first R-rated horror movie.
Aaron Paul, known for his roles in "Breaking Bad" and "Westworld," makes a surprise appearance in the new R-rated DC film "Clayface." The director, James Watkins, explains that Paul plays Jimmy "One Nut" Hagen, the deceased abusive father of the main character, Matt Hagen, portrayed by Tom Rhys Harries. Paul's role was initially larger, with scenes in flashbacks to Matt's childhood, but these were ultimately removed from the final cut.
Watkins reveals that the character of Jimmy represents the theme of revenge, which is more universal and relatable to everyone. Rather than Matt being haunted by his father, he uses the memory of his father to overpower his enemies, effectively saying, "No, I'm not my father."
