Warner Bros. Shifts Release Dates for 'Clayface' and 'Practical Magic 2'
In a move that may leave fans waiting just a little longer, Warner Bros. has announced that it's pushing back the release date of its highly anticipated DC movie "Clayface" from September 11 to October 23. The film, which is based on the Batman villain with shapeshifting powers, will now be competing with other spooky movies and horror releases in late October.
On the flip side, "Practical Magic 2", originally set for release on September 18, has taken over the early September slot that was previously occupied by Universal's "The Conjuring: Last Rites" and a horror remake of "Beetlejuice". The former had proven to be a box office success in previous years, and it will be interesting to see if its sequel can recapture some of that magic.
With these new release dates, Warner Bros. is positioning itself for a strong fall season in the horror and genre film genres. By moving "Clayface" to late October, the studio is hoping to capitalize on the spooky atmosphere surrounding Halloween. The movie, directed by James Watkins and written by Mike Flanagan, promises to be a chilling tale of body horror that's sure to send shivers down audiences' spines.
So, while fans may have to wait just a little longer for "Clayface", they can look forward to the promise of a terrifying Halloween season with both this movie and its release in October.
