Venom 2 Might Be Delayed Now As Sony Shuffles Release Calendar

Venom was actually a shock smash hit for Sony again when it dropped into theaters in 2018. True, the studio little doubt had some confidence {that a} solo outing for a beloved anti-hero from the comics would do respectable numbers, however it’s unlikely that anybody thought it could come near incomes $850 million on the field workplace.

However in opposition to all odds, the movie was an enormous success and actually kicked into gear Sony’s plans to create a Marvel universe of their very own. In spite of everything, the primary trailer for Morbius has already revealed some fascinating ties to Spider-Man: Homecoming and it seems to be just like the formation of the Sinister Six is about to happen, with the group more likely to do battle with Tom Holland’s Peter Parker within the not too distant future. Or least, that was the plan. However now, it seems to be like issues are a bit up within the air as to the timeline of when this may all go down.

Venom 2 was set to land in October, with Andy Serkis getting behind the digicam to exchange Ruben Fleischer, however ComicBook.com brings phrase tonight that the sequel could also be delayed. You see, Sony has pushed again a number of main blockbusters, together with Morbius, and will likely be putting them in fall 2020 or early 2021 launch slots as a substitute, which suggests the aforementioned sequel could sadly get caught within the crossfire, based on the outlet.

Whereas Venom 2‘s launch date hasn’t formally been delayed simply but, with all of this change-up happening now and so many films dropping their spots and having to search out new ones, it’s attainable that Eddie Brock’s second solo outing could discover itself having to choose up and transfer to a brand new date, with its present one going to a different movie.

However for now, that is simply hypothesis on ComicBook.com’s half, it appears, as once more, Venom 2 was not one of many pics talked about in Sony’s announcement. And at this level, we are able to solely hope that it’ll handle to carry onto its present October 2020 launch date since we’ve already misplaced far too many comedian ebook films this yr (see: Black Widow, New Mutants, and so on.)
