The Venom Spinoff Film Just Got A New Writer!

Briefly: It was all the way back in 2013 when Sony announced an expanded Spider-Man universe, which was set to include Venom and Sinister Six spinoff films.

Well, The Amazing Spider-Man 2 sucked, Sony shuttered the expanded universe (along with The Amazing Spider-Man franchise), and fans everywhere were also pretty convinced that this (or a) Venom film wouldn’t see the light of day.

Until just now, that is, as THR has just revealed that a Sony has just hired Dante Harper to write the script.

Harper did some rewrites on the fantastic Edge of Tomorrow, and also co-wrote the Jamie Foxx/Dermot Mulroney flick Sleepless Nights. 

It’ll certainly be interesting to see where this one goes, and just how it’ll tie in with the upcoming Marvel-produced Tom Holland Spider-Man reboot. Could we one day see our MCU heroes face off against the symbiote?

In any case, there are a ton of incredible Venom storylines for Harper to draw from. Which ones would you like to see on screen? Who would you like to see play Eddie Brock? Sound out below!
