Behind The Scenes Video Of Venom In San Francisco

Watch some behind the scenes videos from the set of “Venom” that is being filmed in San Francisco.

Venom is an upcoming American superhero film based on the Marvel Comics character of the same name, produced by Columbia Pictures and distributed by Sony Pictures Releasing. It is intended to be the first film in Sony’s Marvel Universe, adjunct to the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU). The film is being directed by Ruben Fleischer, from a script by Scott Rosenberg, Jeff Pinkner and Kelly Marcel, and stars Tom Hardy as Eddie Brock / Venom, alongside Michelle Williams.

Development on a Venom film, a spin-off from the Spider-Man film franchise, first began with producer Avi Arad in 2007. After going through various iterations, an R-rated standalone film was confirmed in March 2017. The intention was to begin a new shared universe featuring the Marvel characters to which Sony possessed the film rights, though Sony also intends for the film to share the world of Spider-Man: Homecoming, which is set in the MCU because of a deal between Sony and Marvel Studios. Rosenberg and Pinkner were set to write, with Fleischer and Hardy added in May 2017. Filming began in October 2017, in Atlanta and New York City.

Venom is set to be released in the United States on October 5, 2018.

Here’s some more info:

In March 2016, following the introduction of Spider-Man to the Marvel Cinematic Universe, it was announced that Sony was moving forward with a standalone film by hiring Dante Harper to write the script, and Arad, Matt Tolmach and Amy Pascal producing. The film was initially reported to have no connection to the Marvel Cinematic Universe, nor have any relation to Spider-Man, and that it would be set in its own continuity. A year later, Sony announced that Venom would be released on October 5, 2018 with Scott Rosenberg and Jeff Pinkner signed on as screenwriters. It was reported to be Rated R and be the first in a series of Spider-Man character-related spin-off films called ‘Sony’s Marvel Universe’. In May 2017, Tom Hardy was announced to be cast as Eddie Brock / Venom, with Ruben Fleischer attached to direct. Cletus Kasady / Carnage will be the film’s primary antagonist, while Brock’s ex-wife from the comics Ann Weying will also appear in the film. The film has been described by the film’s director Ruben Fleischer to be taking inspiration from the works of David Cronenberg and John Carpenter. The supporting cast currently consists of Riz Ahmed, Michelle Williams and Jenny Slate in unknown roles. Along with the casting of Slate, Variety reported that Kelly Marcel would write the script with Pinkner and Rosenberg. Filming officially began on October 23rd, 2017.
