Venom Animated Movie in Development with Final Destination Filmmakers
The symbiotic alien anti-hero Venom is set to make a surprising return in an entirely new format. According to exclusive reports, an animated Venom movie is currently in development, helmed by filmmakers Zach Lipovsky and Adam B. Stein, the creative duo behind the Final Destination franchise.
This project marks a distinct departure from previous Venom adaptations. While Tom Hardy's live-action portrayal of Eddie Brock and the Venom character has become iconic, and the Spider-Verse universe has explored animated storytelling, this new venture promises to carve its own unique identity. Sources indicate that the film will differ significantly from both Hardy's grounded, gritty take and the stylized animation of the Spider-Verse films.
Adding to the excitement is Tom Hardy's involvement in the project. Though details about his role remain under wraps, Hardy is expected to contribute either as a voice actor, producer, or both, ensuring a connection to the established Venom legacy while exploring new narrative possibilities.
Lipovsky and Stein's track record with the Final Destination series suggests they'll bring a distinctive approach—likely blending suspense, visceral thrills, and creative set pieces. Their involvement hints that this animated Venom film may lean into darker, more intense territory than typical superhero animations.
The announcement has sparked considerable buzz among fans, who are curious to see how the symbiotic alien's story will unfold in an animated setting. Will this be an R-rated venture? How will it fit into the broader Sony Spider-Man universe? These questions remain to be answered, but one thing is clear: Venom's cinematic journey is far from over, and this animated project represents a bold new chapter for the character.
Stay tuned for further updates as development progresses.
