Carnage
For the occasion, Tom Hardy is back in the shoes of Eddie Brock and the Venom symbiote – remember that the actor records the lines of the “creature” which possesses his character, to then play them through the headset and truly be able to speak with himself! Michelle Williams also returns in the shoes of lawyer Anne Weying, Eddie’s ex-fiancée.
In the role of the villain Carnage, we find Woody Harrelson (Natural Killers, Larry Flint, Hunger Games), completely freewheeling and unleashed, and in the role of Mulligan Stephen Graham (The Chef, The Irishman).
Do you find that Venom 2 goes too far and do you agree with the critics who point out at 23% that the film is “unoriginal” or on the contrary do you defend this new adventure of the symbiote? Your keyboards !
