Venom isn’t even out in cinemas yet but there's talk of a trilogy already!
Just over a month to its release date, Venom star, Tom Hardy, has revealed that he’s contracted to play the titular character for three movies! “I’m open to whatever you want to do with it. We’ve signed up for three of them. So it’s very much an open case. We’ll see what people’s responses are to it. I think it’s an awesome character. I love playing both of them," said Tom to Total Film Magazine.

In a nut shell, depending on how well the first film does, a trilogy could happen. The hope is that the franchise will be a success and spawn Sony's own Marvel Cinematic Universe. "It’s an amuse-bouche, and for Sony, it’s the Venom-verse launched in isolation, as it were. We all prepped for it to be a standalone universe. So whatever Sony want to attach to it at a later date, it’s a fulcrum piece. But let’s see what happens when it lands,” added Tom.
Venom will not be a spinoff from the current MCU and instead will hail from Sony's Marvel Universe of characters instead. Directed by Zombieland's Ruben Fleischer and written by Scott Rosenberg and Jeff Pinker, Venom is set to be screened in Malaysian cinemas on 4 October.
Do you think a Venom trilogy will happen?
