ALL STAR Posted February 6, 2008 Posted February 6, 2008 http://uk.movies.ign.com/articles/849/849270p1.html UK, February 4, 2008 - Spider-Man 3 villain Venom may be getting his own spin-off film, according to IESB.net. The site reports that Marvel is moving ahead with a new standalone movie based around the dastardly alien symbiote, and has recently met with several "A-list writers" to pen a script. There has been no official word from Marvel yet, although the studio are in a position to develop new projects after they signed an interim deal with the WGA last week allowing scribes to write for them until the strike resolves. Apparently the rights to the character have recently moved back to Marvel from New Line, although it is unclear what control - if any - Sony have over Venom, since his character appears in Spider-Man 3, which they own. If a Venom spin-off does go ahead, would you want Topher Grace to reprise his role, and what evil shenanigans would like to see him get up to? Would be cool to see Venom get his own film but not sure what the outcome would be in the end. But there is a ton of possibilities for this and carnage could be in include to which would be sweet.

takersfan Posted February 7, 2008 Posted February 7, 2008 They could include carnage spider man and possibly wolverine. Quote
The Crow Posted February 7, 2008 Posted February 7, 2008 Yeah I heard about it to their thinking of using Carnage as the main villain and the whole plot is going to be about the symbiote giving birth to a spawn wich is Carnage! Quote
phil Posted February 7, 2008 Posted February 7, 2008 This looks inteteresting, especially since SM3 didn't fare well in comparison to the original and 2. I wonder if Sal is screaming like a schoolgirl over the prospect of this film. Quote
Fozy Posted February 7, 2008 Posted February 7, 2008 I heard about this so long ago, like just after SM3 came out. Did I make it up? Quote
Nemo Posted February 7, 2008 Posted February 7, 2008 not really, phil. while i love venom, im not a fan of his anorexic live-action counterpart. should they go through with this movie, i hope they dont use carnage. the only thing worse than marvel ruining 1 symbiote is marvel ruining 2 of them. punisher or wolverine prz.

phil Posted February 9, 2008 Posted February 9, 2008 Venom v.s. Wolverine = Cool, but I would LOVE to see the symbiote latch onto Wolverine like that one fateful time in the comics. Quote
Aero Posted February 9, 2008 Posted February 9, 2008 are we SURE this is a venom spin off? i'm reading its a VILLAN spin off so it could be goblin Quote
takersfan Posted February 9, 2008 Posted February 9, 2008 Goblin is one of the worst spiderman villains imo. Quote
phil Posted February 9, 2008 Posted February 9, 2008 Goblin is one of the worst spiderman villains imo. It's your opinion, but I wonder if you've heard of Electro. Quote
Fozy Posted February 9, 2008 Posted February 9, 2008 Just because they didn't portray him that well in the films, doesn't mean he's one of the worst. He's definately one of the most prominant. Quote
Nemo Posted February 9, 2008 Posted February 9, 2008 Goblin is one of the worst spiderman villains imo. It's your opinion, but I wonder if you've heard of Electro. It's your opinion, but I wonder if you've heard of The Enforcers. Quote
