VENOM 2018 : POSSESSED TOM HARDY & VENOM SYMBIOTE REVEALED..?

Published

December 21, 2017

As we know, Sony’s first “Spider-man Spin-off” project isn’t set to hit theaters until late 2018. But that hasn’t stopped images and set photos from appearing on the web. Many fans have been waiting to get a glimpse of what we can expect from Tom Hardy’s incarnation of Venom. Hardy’s MMA trainer let slip that Hardy will embody and turn into an “8’5 Beast.” Well that speculation has now seemed to be backed by artist Michael Frandsen. Who has released some Venom concept art to his social media, which depicts a sculpted Venom in all gray with his trademark razor sharp teeth and long tongue. Frandsen also credits Marvel Studios. The interesting tidbit to this, is Michael Frandsen’s webpage has him working on a secret project, due out in 2018…

This doesn’t necessarily mean these are concept images for ‘Venom.’ But the images look pretty comic book accurate and would be cool to see a finished product. Take a look below:

Also a video from the set of ‘Venom,’ shows what appears to be a “Possessed” Eddie Brock. Something seems to be taking control of Brock in the video. He slams a card door and seems to be getting pulled around by something controlling him.

‘Venom’ is an upcoming American superhero film based on the Marvel Comics character of the same name, produced by Columbia Pictures and distributed by Sony Pictures Releasing.

Set to hit theaters: October 5, 2018

The Marvels Going Higher, Further, Faster!

The Marvels (Marvel Studios)

Plot

Carol Danvers aka Captain Marvel has reclaimed her identity from the tyrannical Kree and taken revenge on the Supreme Intelligence. But unintended consequences see Carol shouldering the burden of a destabilized universe. When her duties send her to an anomalous wormhole linked to a Kree revolutionary, her powers become entangled with that of Jersey City super-fan Kamala Khan, aka Ms. Marvel, and Carol’s estranged niece, now S.A.B.E.R. astronaut Captain Monica Rambeau.

*Brie Larson as Carol Danvers / Captain Marvel (Marvel Studios)*

Movie Review (no spoilers)

Exceptional performance by Brie Larson, Teyonah Parris and Iman Vellani as Carol Danvers / Captain Marvel, Monica Rambeau and Kamala Khan / Ms. Marvel respectively. Samuel L. Jackson is back with a fury as Nick Fury and bringing the much-needed energy and comic relief as usual.

I highly encourage watching the following Marvel movies and TV series in order to thoroughly prepare for The Marvels.

Avengers: Infinity War (2018)
Captain Marvel (2019)
Avengers: Endgame (2019)
WandaVision (2021)
Ms. Marvel (2022)
Secret Invasion (2023)

The Marvels’ storyline picks up right after each of the main stars’ respective storylines and manages to combine their story arc into a unique and marvelous manner, keeping it consistent with some of the current events within the broad Marvel Cinematic Universe and developing our heroes from individual stars into a team of superstars. The costumes are aesthetically pleasing.

*Iman Vellani as Ms. Marvel (Marvel Studios)*

Zawe Ashton plays the part of Dar-Benn, the antagonist in The Marvels. I would have loved to see more of her character’s backstory and hope that we get to see more backgrounds being unpacked either through Marvel TV Series or even an television special.

The movie’s runtime is 105 minutes, making it the shortest Marvel movie in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. The story felt a little bit rushed, considering a dangerous mission is underway to prevent world-level ramifications but no-time is wasted to deliver yet another masterpiece in the cinematic universe.

The story delivers a few unique twists, lots of humor and a few surprises. The movie definitely contains something for everyone, young and old, and I encourage you to take the whole family to experience The Marvels.

*Teyonah Parris as Captain Monica Rambeau (Marvel Studios)*

The Marvels is a story that keeps the golden thread, which is the Marvel Cinematic Universe, and still manages to peak higher, further and faster into the multiversal trajectory.

The trailer doesn’t spoil much, but as always, a secret awaits for those who eagerly pay attention to the Marvel’s trailers. My only worry is that usually key spoilers tend to emerge in the week following the release of the movie in the forms of updated sneak peaks and mini-trailers.

There is a mid-credits scene that you don’t want to miss, but no post-credits scene.

I rate this movie 4 out of 5. Really excited to see what the future holds for Captain Marvel.

Watch at a cinema near you!
