Tom Hardy Returning for Venom 2

Tom Hardy will be reprising his role as Venom in Venom 2.

“I can say that Tom Hardy will be back, magnificently playing that character as no one else can,” producer Amy Pascal told Fandango. “When you think of Venom, you’ll never be able to think of anyone but Tom Hardy sitting in that bathtub of lobsters. And once you saw Tom Hardy do this character, that’s all you needed to know.”

Pascal also teased that Tom Holland as Spider-Man could be in Venom 2.

“Everybody would love to see that,” she said. “You never know someday … it might happen. I can say that we’ve had a fantastic partnership and you never know what’s going to happen. We have a lot of stories to tell about Spider-Man, in every facet. We have big plans for Tom Holland to be a part of everything.”

The sequel is also expected to feature Woody Harrelson as Carnage. Harrelson was shown as Cletus Kasady in the Venom end credits scene where Eddie Brock interviewed him at San Quentin prison. Harrelson hasn’t been officially announced for the sequel though.

Venom earned $855 million at the worldwide box office.
