The new trailer for Venom: Let There Be Carnage has been released, but before we get to that, there might be a bigger story at play here. Neither the trailer nor social media posts list that September release date; instead, the sequel is "exclusively in movie theaters this fall."
With the Delta Variant of COVID-19 causing so many issues, it's possible Sony Pictures is hedging its bets here in case another delay follows as a result of theaters once again closing their doors.
On a brighter note, this trailer is certainly better than the last one! There's plenty of Carnage action as we learn more about how Cletus Kasady gains a symbiote of his own, while we're sure that mention of The Daily Bugle is going to get everyone talking. Venom: Let There Be Carnage is going to be PG-13, but director Andy Serkis could be pushing the boundaries of that rating based on what we see here.
It's hard to ignore the same sort of humour here that we got in 2018's Venom, particularly when we see Venom calling Eddie Brock a "loser" or refusing to fight until he's given permission to eat people. That worked for a lot of fans, of course, so we'll see how it works in the context of the movie.
In the movie, Tom Hardy returns to the big screen as the lethal protector, Venom, one of Marvel's greatest and most complex characters. The movie also stars Michelle Williams, Naomie Harris and Woody Harrelson in the role of the villain Cletus Kasady/Carnage.
