“EDDIEEEEEEEE, ARE YOU READY TO MAKE ANOTHER SEQUEL?”

Ready or not, right here comes Venom with one other film, his third so far. The first two movies within the franchise, starring Tom Hardy as an investigative reporter turned host to a wierd however heroic alien symbiote, have grossed $1.36 billion worldwide.
