Venom
The world has enough superheroes.
Directed by Ruben Fleischer
Produced by Matt Tolmach Productions, Pascal Pictures
A darkly comedic action-adventure that leans into the absurdity of an anti-hero symbiote partnership, balancing violent spectacle with irreverent humor.
Investigative journalist Eddie Brock attempts a comeback following a scandal, but accidentally becomes the host of Venom, a violent, super powerful alien symbiote. Soon, he must rely on his newfound powers to protect the world from a shadowy organization looking for a symbiote of their own.
