The Venom sequel will have the full suite of 3D, IMAX and premium large format screens. It will open opposite Paramount’s Antoine Fuqua actioner Infinite, Sopranos prequel film The Many Saints of Newark, Michael Showalter’s The Eyes of Tammy Faye and Stephen Chbosky’s adaptation of acclaimed Broadway musical, Dear Evan Hansen.

Until recently, theaters had been closed for the better part of a year in much of the U.S., but with Covid restrictions easing, bigger markets like Los Angeles and New York have started reopening in stages, Deadline cited.

The release of “Venom: Let There Be Carnage” has been delayed one week from Sept. 17 to Sept. 24.

The sequel, which stars Tom Hardy, was most recently pushed to September from June 25 due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The one-week delay of “Venom 2” means that the movie will no longer premiere on the same day as murder mystery “Death of the Nile” and the animated children’s film “The Boss Baby: Family Business.” Other films opening on Sept. 24 include “Dear Evan Hansen” and “The Sopranos” prequel film “The Many Saints of Newark.”

However, its late September release date will still ensure the film has ample space between other big names like James Gunn’s “The Suicide Squad” on Aug. 6 and Denis Villeneuve’s long-awaited “Dune” on Oct. 1, Variety noted.

How Venom 2 Can Connect Spider-Man 3'S Multiverse Story

Venom: Let There Be Carnage will be the second film in the Sony Pictures Universe of Marvel Characters (SPUMC). Other films in the shared universe include Morbius, Madame Web, Kraven the Hunter and an untitled film directed by Olivia Wilde, which is rumored to be a Spider-Woman project. On the TV side, the studio is working on a TV series centered on Silk.

The current status between the SPUMC and the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) remains murky. There have been no crossovers between the two universes, and no official announcements have come from Marvel or Sony. However, the Morbius trailer featured a surprise appearance by Michael Keaton. While nothing has been confirmed, many are speculating that he will reprise his role as Adrian Toomes / Vulture from the MCU's Spider-Man: Homecoming, according to CBR.

Sony’s Spider-Man Spin-Offs After Venom 2

Morbius has a July 2020 release date, Venom 2 is arriving in October 2020, and Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse 2 is aiming for an April 2022 release – between and after that are no confirmed titles. Sony has a lot of Spider-Man-related movies in development, such as Nightwatch, Kraven the Hunter, Black Cat, Silver Sable, The Sinister Six, Madame Web, and Silk, but not all of them are moving forward as smoothly as fans would like. For example: Black Cat and Silver Sable were originally going to be one female team-up movie titled Silver & Black, but the studio decided to rework it as separate movies, but there haven’t been any major updates. Nightwatch is also trapped in development hell, and Madame Web is in very early stages of development as a script is in the works.

The meaning of Venom: Let There Be Carnage

In addition to its new release date, Venom 2's official title is now Venom 2: Let There Be Carnage. The Venom 2 title notably alludes to the inclusion of Carnage, who will be the main villain, and delivering on his promise made in Venom's post-credit scene of how "there's gonna be carnage". While many fans may have wanted the title to be Maximum Carnage, in order to reference the character's famed story arc from Marvel Comics, Let There Be Carnage is a direct play on Kasady's comments from the first movie and it still gets the name Carnage in there. It promises two things: Carnage is the villain and there will certainly be chaos throughout the movie, thus continuing Kasady's threat.

Venom: Let There Be Carnage, beyond being an obvious continuation of Kasady's statement in prison, is an interesting choice for the sequel, as it's rather unexpected. Venom 2 was originally just Venom 2, but adding Let There Be Carnage feels more like a title that would've been used in the 2000s instead of the 2020s. Considering that the first movie was noted for feeling like a 2000s-era movie, perhaps this is right in line with what Sony wants from the sequel, Screenrant cited.
