[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]From what we’ve seen, Venom will not be a typical run of the mill lighthearted superhero film. The dark undertones and violence will set it apart from other comic-book movies. The DCEU is known for being dark, but according to director Ruben Fleischer, they’ve set out to push the limits, despite there not being a rating released yet for the upcoming film.
“I feel like the casting, the aesthetic and the character himself all combine to make something that just feels different,” Fleischer told LA Times. “Tonally it doesn’t remind you of other movies. It doesn’t feel like we just tried to do what everyone else is doing…. The DC universe is so aggressively dark and the Marvel universe has become so light. It was kind of exciting to craft something that just felt a little bit more real and grounded and in our world.”
Continuing his conversation to Comicbook.com, Fleischer added:
“Our movie wants to honor the comics as close as we can tonally. In the comics, he bites people’s heads off and eats brains. It would be weird to make a movie with Venom if he wasn’t doing that. We tried to honor it as closely as possible. This is definitely a darker, more violent, more vicious Marvel character than I think anyone’s ever seen.”
Venom will premiere October 5 2018
