It was only two weeks ago that Sony announced they were moving the release of their Marvel Comics adaptation Venom: Let There Be Carnage back from June to September 17th, and now the studio has given an update: they have decided to push the film back one more week. Venom: Let There Be Carnage is now set to reach theatres on September 24th.
Sony didn't give a reason for why they want to wait an extra week to get the film out into the world. On September 24th, it will be opening against Antoine Fuqua's Infinite, the Sopranos prequel The Many Saints of Newark, Michael Showalter's The Eyes of Tammy Faye, and the Broadway musical adaptation Dear Evan Hansen. When Venom: Let There Be Carnage reaches theatres, it will have the full suite of 3D, IMAX, and premium large format screens.
A sequel to 2018's Venom (watch it HERE), Let There Be Carnage was directed by Andy Serkis from a screenplay by Kelly Marcel.
Tom Hardy (who apparently worked on the script as well) reprises the role of journalist Eddie Brock, who becomes the anti-hero Venom when coated with an alien symbiote. He's joined in the cast by Woody Harrelson as serial killer Cletus Kasady, who becomes the symbiote-coated villain Carnage; Michelle Williams as Eddie's ex Anne; Naomie Harris as Carnage's accomplice Shriek; Reid Scott as Doctor Dan Lewis, Anne's boyfriend; and Stephen Graham and Sean Delaney in unspecified roles.
Graham may be playing Detective Patrick Mulligan. In the comics, Mulligan also gets coated with a symbiote and becomes a character called Toxin, "more powerful than Venom and Carnage combined".
