LOS ANGELES

Sony’s comic-book movie, Venom, did massively well at the worldwide box office.The movie which starred A-lister Tom Hardy as Eddie Brock raked in more than USD 850 million worldwide at the box office and became one of the highest grossing films of the year. It is then quite natural that the Marvel studio bosses want to make the most out of it even though the movie did not do well within the critics' circle. 

According to a Ladbible report, one of the film writers has confirmed that the second installment of the hilarious yet scary Venom is on its way. The film's co-writer Jeff Pinkner didn't hesitate in confirming what fans have been waiting to hear. Pinkner said: "I can't say anything other than that it is happening." He, however, refused to divulge the other finer details. 

The report also hints at Spider-Man making an appearance in Venom 2, since in the comic series he is closely related to him. On being asked if there was a possibility on the two coming together, the writer told Ladbible: "Without revealing anything that I'm not supposed to reveal, it is not impossible a future I think it's fair to say that everyone involved would be very excited by a Spider-Man/Venom movie."

The report also states that Sony has already adapted the backstory for Riot - played by Riz Ahmed - in Venom, so there is no limit on where the next film could go or how characters could fit into the Venom world.
