Production Listing Suggests ‘Venom’ Will Be a Rated R Horror Film! – Bloody Disgusting

Oh and its still not a sequel to Life.

The success of rated R movies Deadpool and Logan will likely pave the way for more comic book films that push boundaries and step outside of boxes, and Sony Pictures Venom could be the next one to do just that. As announced earlier this month, the Spider-Man character will be getting his own movie on October 5, 2018, and it may very well be something of a horror flick.

Frequently reliable website My Entertainment World just shared the production listing for Venom, set to begin filming this coming Fall, which describes it as an action/horror/science fiction movie. That description sure lines up with the character, who could very easily be the terrifying villain in a superhero/horror movie mashup. How cool would that be?!

Additionally, Collider is reporting today that Venom will be rated R! They say the plan is for the film,scripted byDante Harper(Alien: Covenant), to launch Sonys own Marvel universe.

The character was introduced in 1988 in The Amazing Spider-Man #298-300, scripted by David Michelinie and drawn by the legendary Todd McFarlane and Mike Zeck.

Venomis an alien symbiote that needs a human host to survive. In return, the alien empowers its victim with incredible powers.
