Venom: Let There Be Carnageis poised to have the second biggest October box office take ever. The film, which opened this weekend, is a follow-up to the 2018 hit Venom, which ended up at #11 for domestic box office that year. While the weekend is still ongoing, the film already hit number 1 in the box office on its opening Thursday. Directed by Andy Serkis, Venom 2 stars Tom Hardy, Woody Harrelson, Michelle Williams, Naomie Harris, Stephen Graham, Reid Scott, and Peggy Lu.
Let There Be Carnage follows up on the promise made by the end-credits sequence in the original film. Eddie Brock, who is still getting the hang of being fused with his alien symbiote Venom, seeks to get back into the game as a reporter by interviewing notorious serial killer Cletus Kasady (Harrelson). However, when Kasady bonds with his own symbiote, Carnage, they escape and begin to wreak havoc all over San Francisco along with Harris’ secondary villain Shriek. This will force Venom and Eddie to fast-forward through their growing pains in order to save the city yet again.
