We all remember the great success Sony had the last time they used the Venom character in Spider-Man 3. Wait, it went horribly wrong you say? Oh, that’s right. Well, have no fear because Sony is not giving up on the popular character after news broke that a stand along Venom film is in the works.
The Hollywood Reporter says that the new Venom film is officially underway as Edge of Tomorrow scribe, Dante Harper has been hired to write the script. Venom will not just be a single film, oh no that won’t do at all, but an entire franchise separate from the soon to be rebooted Spider-Man franchise starring Tom Holland.
I don’t have a lot of faith in Sony but if Marvel has their finger in this, then I may get excited. Either way, just seeing Venom on-screen and not Topher Grace would be a huge plus.
