Venom is a fictional character appearing in American comic books published by Marvel Comics.
A simple supporting role seems somewhat wasteful.
THE AMAZING SPIDER MAN 2 VENOM MOVIE
Given his rising stature - not to mention his breakout success playing a disturbed superpowered character in Chronicle - one could understand Sony hedging their bets that DeHaan could carry a Venom movie franchise on his own. The kid has proven what a talent he is, and when his name was attached to the Harry Osborn role it was made clear that the filmmakers were going in different direction with the character. Given that Marc Webb is highlighting this particular image (the #14 locker) with a birthday shoutout attached, the natural assumption is that Dane DeHaan - a rising star who made impressions in films like Chronicle, Lawless and Lincoln last year - has indeed been brought onboard to not only offer fans a different take on Harry Osborn (than what James Franco did with the character in the original trilogy), but also to bolster this pivotal character of Venom - possibly in anticipation of the upcoming Venom movie from Chronicle director Josh Trank.īesides red herrings like the Oscorp gene experiments or Spidey leaving blood behind after getting shot in the leg by police - the biggest piece of evidence here is the hiring of DeHaan. If you've seen Spider-Man 3 or read the classic Marvel 616 universe origin of Venom from the 1980s, you basically know the story. This parasitic entity bonds with Peter first, making him a stronger, more invulnerable Spider-Man (able to organically make his own webbing, by the way), before it moves on to its secondary host, Eddie, creating the iconic anti-hero known as Venom. The pair find a specialized "suit" designed to help cure cancer in a locker (# 14 - see above). In the Ultimate Spider-Man comic book continuity, Peter Parker and his old friend Eddie Brock are looking into Peter's father's research. #happybirthday /MarcW/status/2…Ĭrave Online has identified that the birthday shoutout is to Dane DeHaan, who was born on February 6th - but it's the combination of the birthday wish and the particular photo that has caused such geek mania.
We've been following Amazing Spider-Man 2 director Marc Webb's on-set teases via Twitter the first batch of photos teased the movie's traditional filming style and hinted at more Oscorp gene-therapy mayhem to come - but today's Tweet is setting the geek world on fire:ĭay 3.
So far we've had the usual confirmation of returning stars (Andrew Garfield and Emma Stone) some expected additions to the franchise ( Dane DeHaan as Harry Osborn and Shailene Woodley as Mary Jane) some pretty unexpected casting in the villain department (Jamie Foxx as Electro and Paul Giamatti as The Rhino) now, we can add speculation about Venom - a somewhat expected/unexpected/hoped for character - being added to the mix. The Amazing Spider-Man 2 is becoming one of THE superhero movies to watch, as Sony clearly has plans to blow the doors of their rebooted franchise wide open into a bigger, better, Avengers-style cinematic universe.
