TRAILER WATCH: Sony gives preview of new Marvel Characters

JOSEPH FREID

The latest trailer for the upcoming movie Venom gives the fans a more detailed look at the first installment of Sony’s Cinematic Universe of Marvel Characters, this however is not connected with Disney’s mega franchise that is the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU).

This trailer finally gives a full body shot of Venom that reveals how the film addresses the giant white spider symbol on his chest, since Spiderman is not in this universe fans have been wondering how the film would work around that, But these new shots of Venom gives fans hope that venom will get a large amount of screen time that audiences were worried he would not get.

Additionally the trailer gives a look at the films main antagonist “Riot” this character is played by actor Riz Ahmed known for Rogue One, Nightcrawler and others. This character is very CGI heavy just like the main character Venom. Although the trailer in filled with dozens of visual effects all of them seem to be top quality as to expect from all Hollywood blockbusters in this era of film.

The trailer does fail to include any hints as to who actor Woody Harrelson (Solo,Hunger Games and Seven Psychopaths) will be playing.

Other than that we get extended scenes of ones previously seen in the first trailer. Even Though we get all of these great things, I will not be going into this movie with high expectations given that Sony’s latest track record has not been very good.
