After the first trailer gave Venom fans a small taste of Carnage, sequel director Andy Serkis revealed that the classic Marvel villain will have a new power when he makes his live-action debut this fall.
“He can turn to mist. He can turn to all manner of tendrils. He can take different forms. He can weaponize, he can do all of these different things,” Serkis told IGN while explaining why Venom will have his work cut out for him. “It would be like trying to have a fight with an octopus basically.”
Here’s the official plot synopsis:
Tom Hardy returns to the big screen as the lethal protector Venom, one of Marvel’s greatest and most complex characters. Directed by Andy Serkis, the film also stars Michelle Williams, Naomie Harris and Woody Harrelson, in the role of the villain Cletus Kasady/Carnage.
