It was just yesterday that we passed along word that the powers that be behind the scenes of MOGLI director and THE LORD OF THE RINGS actor Andy Serkis' VENOM 2 starring Tom Hardy as Eddie Brock / Venom and Woody Harrelson as Cletus Kasady / Carnage might be considering an R-rated version of the sequel due to the smash success of Todd Phillips and Joaquin Phoenix's JOKER.
And today we have word that SNATCH and THE IRISHMAN actor Stephen Graham is joining the film. As you might imagine, Graham’s role is being kept under wraps but we will make sure to keep on top of this casting news as it develops and pass along updates as we hear them.
In the meantime, Graham can be seen next as Jacob Marley in Tom Hardy & Steven Knight's FULL HORROR re-telling of Charles Dickens’ iconic ghost story A CHRISTMAS CAROL starring Guy Pearce and Andy Serkis. Check out the full trailer below. The FX original series is described as
a spine-tingling immersion into Ebenezer Scrooge’s dark night of the soul.
