Final Destination Bloodlines team are sinking its teeth into a Venom animated movie

Per The Hollywood Reporter, the Final Destination Bloodlines guys, Zach Lipovsky and Adam B. Stein, are succumbing to the symbiote and are working on an animated Venom movie. There’s really not a ton of reporting on the movie, other than Tom Hardy may return in some capacity, either to voice Eddie Brock or produce the movie, which Sony Pictures Animation is making. 

Basically, the whole thing sounds like Sony, desperate to get an animated Spider-Man anything in theaters this decade, is getting antsy about when Phil Lord and Chris Miller will bring Spider-Verse back. The Spider-Verse movies have been ridiculously successful for the studio, with 2023’s Across The Spider-Verse grossing more than $690 million worldwide, nearly double its predecessor. However, that half a movie also ended on a cliffhanger, which has yet to be resolved. Beyond The Spider-Verse, the third film in the series, has been bounced around the schedule for years now and is currently slated for a June 2027 release, following numerous script and production delays. 

As for Lipovsky and Stein, their dance card is filling up. Last year, they were announced as writing Chris Columbus’ Gremlins 3, which will hopefully allow for some mean-spirited Final Destination gremlin action that Columbus hated so much in Gremlins 2. They’re also developing an original thriller called Long Lost, which THR describes as a mix of What Lies Beneath and Rosemary’s Baby.
