It has also been said that Tudyk has a secret live-action role in James Gunn’s Superman movie, so it’s possible the role could be the same.

What are the Clayface Creature Commandos details?

Alan Tudyk also teased this new version of the Batman villain.

“In this, Clayface is a killer. We have a huge fight. He’s a homicidal maniac,” he said. “So it’s the same character. That’s what’s great. That’s really cool about DC, I get to play the actual same character two completely different ways.”

He continued, “I like them both. It’s really nice that James let me play Clayface. I was so happy. I didn’t even have to ask, I was going to ask. Then I saw it in there. He let me know that I got to do it.”

Regarding the Superman movie, with the surprise revelation Alan Tudyk is voicing Clayface in Creature Commandos, that could also mean Alan Tudyk might be playing the live-action version.  Of course, it’s entirely posibly Alan Tudyk is also playing a different character for Gunn in Superman.

Creature Commandos gets released December 5th only on MAX. The voice cast includes includes Steve Agee as Economos, Maria Bakalova as Princess Ilana, Anya Chalotra as Circe, Zoe Chao as Nina Mazursky, Sean Gunn as GI Robot & Weasel, David Harbour as Frankenstein, Indira Varma as The Bride, and Viola Davis as Amanda Waller.
