ERC: Sony has slated Venom for October 5, 2018 [VENM1] Oleg Max Mar 16, 14:46

So it's going to open the same day as the studio's own TGRL2? {nm} ~JPV~ Mar 16, 14:55

why not? see May 19 Oleg Max Mar 16, 14:59

IDK, not quite the same, Wimpy Kid is directed at young kids, Alien at adults whereas I can see VENM1 and TGRL2 having more cross-over... {nm} ~JPV~ Mar 16, 15:02

Guessing Sony saw Aquaman move and jumped on the date without realizing that. {nm} reelreptile Mar 16, 14:59

or they'll move The Girl {nm} slipping jimmy Mar 16, 15:04

First week of October is not exactly a blockbuster slot. Current record is $55M. {nm} Antibody Mar 16, 15:05

The thinking is that date is the longest lead up gap between superhero movies in 2018 if all the "Untitled" ones wind up sticking. notfabio Mar 16, 15:25

Venom in October and then Animated Spiderman in December? {nm} RazorHawk Mar 16, 15:04

Why not. This sets ups Spider-Man vs Venom in July 2019. Antibody Mar 16, 15:07

I wish they would do Agent Vemon.... that would be fun. RazorHawk Mar 16, 15:44

So is it safe to presume that Marvel Studios will be involved? If so $$$$.... {nm} Judgement_Death Mar 16, 15:17

ERC: Alex Kurtzman to direct RazorHawk Mar 16, 15:24

Update from Sony: Alex Kurtzman no longer involved w/ VENOM. Scott Rosenberg & Jeff Pinkner will pen the tale. Antibody Mar 16, 17:34

yay Scott {nm} slipping jimmy Mar 16, 17:53

Looks like that Life rumor just gained a bit more traction. {nm} THXER Mar 16, 16:03

Jake Gyllenhaal was suppose to take over as Peter Parker. Be funny if he really is the new Venom. {nm} Antibody Mar 16, 16:15

I'm a Spidey fan but didn't read the Venom solo books...is there enough there for his own movie? {nm} tealfan Mar 16, 16:43

this is Hollywood. they could get a franchise off the back of a cereal box {nm} slipping jimmy Mar 16, 16:52

Froot Loops? {nm} Captain Obvious Mar 16, 17:33

That would explain Lady in the Water. {nm} Antibody Mar 16, 17:41

Bryce will reprise the role in Unbreakable/Split 2. {nm} Captain Hindsight Mar 16, 18:02
