Tom Hardy Is Your New Venom
One of the more confusing and intriguing recent developments in our ongoing Superhero Boom has been Sony’s development of their own cinematic universe based on Spider-Man characters … but without Spider-Man in it. They own the rights to those figures, but they’re co-producing Spidey sagas set in the Disney-owned Marvel Cinematic Universe, so the webslinger himself can’t be part of a new, self-contained mythology at Sony. They’re doing the next-best thing by having their own little world that centers around longtime Spider-Man supporting player Venom, and word has come down today that Tom Hardy will be playing him (and his alter ego, Eddie Brock) in 2018’s eponymous Venom. Ruben Fleischer of Zombieland will be directing. This will be Hardy’s return to the superhero genre after his muffled turn as Bane in 2012’s The Dark Knight Rises, and it’s certainly a coup for Sony to grab such a beloved star, but the question remains: Will people see a Spider-flick that doesn’t have the original wall-crawler in it? If anyone can do it, it’s Tom, who is bald now:

I'll be interested to see how they do the CGI mouth. I could see that being tricky to pull off correctly...

After reading a bit as well, that does seem like the logical angle they would take. It sounds like it could be cool alright, but I would rather see a standalone horror film, but that won't happen when they can make more money running with the Deadpoolesque anti-hero thing.

Looks like they'll actually venture to the horror genre more so than Blade 1&2 which was slightly glossed over

Here is how I see it going though. Obviously, the suit is going to win him over with its immense power and abilities, but then, in his darkest hour, his humanity will allow him to tame the suit and become more powerful than before and defeat a mighty foe. It is so overdone that it will most certainly happen!

If they are smart they tie this in to Marvel but "future film" it.
They skip forward with the Venom story and explain the 5 W's later on. A great example would be including nothing other than Killing Aunt May during the film. That little bit would tie it all in and make fans want to know how and why and when...

If they slow play this and don't let the audience know that Venom is killing spidey people until the end....that might be damned good.

The symbiot has a mind altering element to it also that involves inherent schizophrenic and dissociative personality ventures too.

Someone mentioned on Reddit that since this comes out shortly after Infinity Wars that maybe they will do a brief introduction of Venom since it kinda requires Spider Man... you know the whole chicken and egg thing.
