Venom Trailer Does It's Job

Venom Teaser Trailer Does It’s Job

Just when you thought we’d reached critical superhero mass, Sony Pictures gifts the fandom with it’s “first look at Tom Hardy as Eddie Brock. Have no fear, TGGeeks would never let miss the first teaser trailer from Venum!

One of the most enigmatic, complex and badass characters in the Marvel Universe comes to the big screen, starring Academy Award® nominated actor Tom Hardy as the lethal protector Venom.

The trailer focuses on Eddie Brock (Tom Hardy) showing flashes of his struggle with the symbiote. This tease does its job well because it doesn’t give away storyline and direction at all.

In December 2017, during Brazil Comic-Con, director Rueben Fleisher revealed this iteration of Venom would draw heavily from Marvel Comics Venom: Lethal Protector limited series. As it should, given that this is Venom’s first individual story arc.

There’s no world (or version of this world) that exists where I’m not here for the work of Tom Hardy so let’s hope the full trailer – still yet to come – lives up to the promise of the teaser.

On Tuesday, the first Venom poster went live as well. In a smooth marketing move, neither the teaser trailer nor the poster gives even a hint of what this incarnation of Venom symbiote suit will look like.
