Venom: 10 Mistakes Sony Must Avoid With The Spider-Man Spin-Off
6. Select The Wrong Villain
There really is only one choice for Venom's big bad, and that's Carnage.
Fans have waited what seems like an eternity to see Venom fly solo, yet we've NEVER seen his fellow symbiote host Cletus Kassady feature on the big screen.
Most conversations about Venon see Carnage get at least a passing mention, and that's because the two characters are intrinsically linked, both in origin and theme.
Deranged serial killer Kassady is the perfect villain for the Venom solo movie, if only to serve as a dark mirror for Eddie Brock.
Drenched in that black gloop, Brock is almost despicable at times, but Carnage is evil incarnate and the contracts between the two characters could help keep the audience on Venom's side throughout.
