12 Perfect 2020 Castings We Can't Wait To See
6. Woody Harrelson - Venom 2
For years a debate has waged on between comic fans and movie goers about the perfect man to play Cletus Kasady. Carnage is a particular fan favourite that has yet to be done any justice within the film adaptations of Stan Lee's Spiderman comics; something that seems like it has a great chance of changing with the upcoming Venom 2.
Woody Harrelson has been tasked with bringing Spider-Man's unhinged nemesis to life on screen and as soon as the affable Texan was announced it was as if all the pieces just slid neatly into place.
Harrelson is a talented and experienced actor and some of his more recent roles have been amongst his finest; he truly appears to be hitting his prime. What more exciting time for him to play a role he was unknowingly born to play? Harrelson carries all the ability and intensity to make Carnage a believable and intimidating foe for our web-slinging hero.
A deeply disturbed individual with a dark past makes for an interesting character study for Harrelson and one which there is no doubt he will pull off with aplomb.
