Venom Movie Back On

Now that Sony has set Spider-Man on its rebooted path, the studio is setting its sights on other Spider-Man franchises. Case in point: Venom . Sony has tapped Dante Harper to pen a script for Venom , something that is being envisioned as a franchise apart from and unrelated to the upcoming Spider-Man movie in the works with actor Tom Holland . Avi Arad and Matt Tolmach, among stewards of the Spider-Man properties, are producing and overseeing the project. Venom is one of Marvel’s top villains and a Spider-Man fixture since he was introduced in 1988, created by writer David Michelinie and artists Todd McFarlane and Mike Zeck. The character is an alien symbiote that needs a human host to survive. In return, the alien empowers its victim with incredible powers.

"A few months ago, I came to realize that the folks at New Line and I just don't see eye to eye on what makes Sandman special, and what a film adaptation could/should be," the pertinent portion of his post reads. "So unfortunately, I decided to remove myself from the project. I wish nothing but the best for the team moving forward." The move followed Warners moving all the developing films adapted from DC's Vertigo

#Zendaya Cast In The Spider-Man Reboot

According to Deadline Sony and Marvel Studios are beginning to cast up their Spider-Man reboot. Actress-singer Zendaya has landed a key role in the ensemble they are building around Tom Holland , who’ll play Peter Parker/Spider-Man in the film to be directed by Jon Watts (Cop Car). She was among the actresses who’ve quietly been testing for roles, and I hear she will play a character named Michelle. Nobody is providing details on whether this is the romantic lead opposite Peter Parker, but it doesn’t sound like it. In the comics, Parker romanced Mary Jane and Gwen. Please Leave A Comment-
