The Amazing Spider-Man 2: 13 Actors Who Should Play Venom In Spin-Off

2. Tom Felton

If Marvel and Sony want to go down the annoying, young, scrawny and whiny route with Eddie Brock again (i.e. like the Ultimate version), then Tom Felton could potentially pull it off - and hopefully in a much better way than Topher Grace. Felton, famous for playing Draco Malfoy in the Harry Potter series of movies, essentially has those personality traits down to a tee as far as his acting skills go, and his build is perfect for the Ultimate version of the character. He is the ideal age for good on-screen chemistry with Andrew Garfield and I'm surprised that I haven't seen his name in the mix for the role already - at least not as far as discussion amongst fans is concerned. It's hard to envisage him bulked up for the Venom side of the character using CGI, but I imagine that it would look good and I think that he is the perfect choice should the Ultimate version of the character be used for on-screen inspiration again.
