Watch Tom Hardy in the New Trailer for “Venom” (Which This Time Actually Features Venom)
Due Out October 5 via Sony
Apr 24, 2018 Marvel
Venom is a standalone movie about Spider-Man villain (and later anti-hero) Venom. It stars Tom Hardy as the title character and his alter-ego Eddie Brock and it’s due out October 5 via Sony. Back in February the first teaser trailer was shared and it got a lot of criticism for not actually featuring Venom or Hardy showing off his powers. Now a new trailer has been shared and the good news is that you do finally see Venom, although not until the end of the trailer. Watch it below.
Sony has the film rights to Spider-Man and while they’ve done a deal to incorporate everyone’s favorite wall crawler into the Marvel Cinematic Universe with 2016’s Captain America: Civil War, last year’s Spider-Man: Homecoming, this Friday’s Avengers: Infinity War, and future movies, they still seem intent on making movies on other characters in the Spider-Man universe. There’s some confusion over whether or not Venom is set in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, and whether or not Spider-Man (currently played by Tom Holland) will appear. How they do a movie on Venom, a character whose origin is so intertwined with Spider-Man, is hard to imagine, although the new trailer give hints at how they plan to pull that off. The trailer also shows off love interest Michelle Williams, villain Riz Ahmed, and Jenny Slate.
Ruben Fleischer (who did Zombieland, yay!, but also did Gangster Squad, boo!) is directing a script by Scott Rosenberg (Pain & Gain, Jumanji) and Jeff Pinkner (The Amazing Spider-Man 2). Avi Arad and Matt Tolmach are producing along with Amy Pascal.
Venom/Eddie Brock first showed up in the Spider-Man comics in the 1980s. The basic idea is that Spider-Man (aka Peter Parker) got a strange new living black alien costume on another planet during the Secret Wars miniseries. The costume started to affect Spider-Man, almost turning him bad, and eventually merged with Eddie Brock, a corrupt rival photographer to Peter Parker, thus forming the villain Venom. Venom/Eddie Brock was previously played by Topher Grace in 2007’s Spider-Man 3, which didn’t go over too well. Hopefully this version will turn out better.
