Andy Serkis Was “Devastated” To Read About Snoke’s Fate In The ‘Last Jedi’ Script

It’s hard to believe that it will have been a decade next summer since Christopher Nolan ended his Batman trilogy with “The Dark Knight Rises.” While that movie has its detractors, Nolan’s films still successfully resurrected The Caped Crusader from the cinematic death-sentence of 1998’s “Batman & Robin.” Unfortunately, the DCEU‘s subsequent takes on Bruce Wayne and his crime-fighting alter-ego haven’t been quite as popular.

EXCLUSIVE: The Black List has chosen six screenwriters out of 1,400 submissions for its ninth annual Features Lab. 

*Warning there are spoilers ahead for “Venom: Let There Be Carnage.”* Last weekend saw Sony Pictures come away with the most substantial domestic box office opening since the pandemic started with “Venom: Let There Be Carnage,” earning a hefty $90.1 million. One of the big draws seemingly was the mid-credit scene that sadly leaked early thanks to fan screenings that didn’t adhere to Tom Hardy’s instructions, not to spoil the film.

Little Simz has shared a remixed version of her 2019 track ‘Venom’ which has been created for the upcoming Venom sequel.The original version of ‘Venom’ was released in 2019 as part of Drake’s soundtrack for the Netflix show Top Boy.Now, ahead of the release of Tom Hardy‘s Venom: Let There Be Carnage next week (October 15), Simz has reworked the track for an appearance in the film, and the new version is now available on streaming services.According to the new film’s director Andy Serkis, it was

This weekend showed some impressive signs of life returning to the box office and that blockbusters remain the big draws for audiences both domestic and international. According to various box office reports (Gitesh Pandya for one), “Venom: Let There Be Carnage” surpassed “Black Widow” ($80.3 million) and the original “Venom” ($80.2 million) earning an estimated $90.1 million at the domestic box office.

Spoilers for “Venom: Let There Be Carnage” follow below.As soon as Sony Pictures confirmed a “Venom” sequel was happening, fans were speculating over whether the film might include a cameo from Tom Holland’s Spider-Man.

Tom Hardy-fronted Marvel sequel Venom: Let There Be Carnage have come in, and the results are mixed.The film, which is co-written by Hardy and directed by Andy Serkis, sees Hardy’s antihero and alien symbiote Venom square off against a new villain, Woody Harrelson’s serial killer Cletus Kasady.In its two-star review, The Guardian labelled the film “an admirably light-hearted but utterly disposable sequel.”Variety has called the sequel an “incomprehensible follow-up”, and described its tone as “a

“There’s an arc to this obviously,” explains Venom: Let There Be Carnage filmmaker Andy Serkis about connecting Sony’s Spider-Man villain to the greater Marvel Cinematic Universe.

“ Venom: Let There Be Carnage ” is best when it’s not trying to be a comic book movie.That fact may not bode especially well for future spinoffs and integrations within the so-called “Spider-Verse,” but one senses that director Andy Serkis, screenwriter Kelly Marcel and star/producer Tom Hardy are aware of this weakness.

Heralded by some advanced irony enthusiasts who normally scorn superhero movies as a batshit gonzo delight, Sony’s original “Venom” film starring Tom Hardy was actually quite bad. Dreadful, really, a near disaster, despite its unfathomable $856 million worldwide gross.

Tom Hardy has embodied many eccentric characters over the course of his career so far — from Bane and Venom to Al Capone and «Mad» Max Rockatansky. But would he ever consider taking on Hollywood's most famous man of mystery?With Daniel Craig's last hurrah as James Bond about to hit the screens in there are plenty of rumors about who might next pick up 007's infamous martini glass — with more than a few rumblings of Hardy's name.

Rebecca Rubin Film and Media ReporterFollowing a quiet stretch at the domestic box office, Sony’s comic book sequel “Venom: Let There Be Carnage” looks to make some noise. The film opens in theaters on Friday after five delays, something of a pandemic-record.Directed by Andy Serkis and starring Tom Hardy as an otherworldly lethal protector, the superhero movie is estimated to collect at least $50 million in its opening weekend.

While film fans probably know Andy Serkis best for his motion-capture acting work in the “Lord of the Rings” and “Planet of the Apes” franchises, right now he’s out there promoting his filmmaking career as the director of the new film, “Venom: Let There Be Carnage.” And though he probably has some acting roles in the future, the question now is whether or not he’d be willing to come back to do another ‘Venom’ film if this current sequel is the runaway hit that people expect it to be?

You honestly didn’t think we’d go a full calendar year without some live-action “Star Wars” action right? Well, even though it seemed like that might happen, Lucasfilm is sneaking “The Book of Boba Fett” in right at the end of 2021.

Sony Pictures’ “Spider-verse” Marvel world. But “Venom,” led by Hardy's Jekyll and Hyde act, managed to break free of some of the prescribed rhythms of superhero movies.In its most talked-about scene, journalist Eddie Brock (Hardy), is overcome by the alien symbiote living inside him: Venom, a slimy, sinister-looking alien hulk also voiced by Hardy.

Before its release, “Venom” seemingly had disaster written all over it; a goofy “Spider-Man” spinoff that didn’t feature Peter Parker and a forgettable/generic villain in Riot. But never underestimate Tom Hardy and Marvel Comics characters getting asses in seats, as the film ended up making Sony Pictures an impressive $856 million at the global box office.
