Coming out of this weekend’s Brazil Comic-Con, Sony has released poster art for the Venom movie which teases the classic line from the comics, “We are Venom.”
The Brazil Comic-Con also saw Tom Hardy and Ruben Fleischer make a surprise appearance via live satellite where they revealed the Venom movie is in part based on the Venom: Lethal Protector comic book storyline.
In addition to the promo art, Tom Hardy was spotted wearing a Venom t-shirt, and the audience at the Brazil Comic-Con held up a huge Venom movie banner.
The Marvel Comics Venom: Lethal Protector story sees Venom and Spider-Man come to a truce as long as Venom commits no crimes. Venom then leaves for San Francisco, but Spider-Man eventually catches up with Venom thinking he’s gone back to being a bad guy only to eventually team up with Venom against five symbiotes who are the offspring of Venom: Scream, Phage, Riot, Lasher, and Agony.
It remains to be seen how close the Venom movie will adapt the comic book story as Spider-Man won’t be featured in the movie, but Carnage will.
Check out the Venom art below.
Venom has an October 5, 2018 release date also starring Jenny Slate, Michelle Williams and Riz Ahmed.
