Venom is an upcoming American superhero film based on the Marvel Comics character of the same name, produced by Columbia Pictures in association with Marvel and distributed by Sony Pictures Releasing. It is a spin-off from the Spider-Man film franchise.  As Venom was never supposed to cross the line from being a minor villain, but later with interest of the audience in his dark devilish personality producer Avi Arad came up with the idea of Venom being the protagonist. It is a ‘no hero’ movie, as there will be no spider-man or any other Marvel hero appearing in the movie and not even the symbol of Spider-man will be seen, as Venom will be causing massacre after every two feet, it’s going to be an action packed movie with some terrorising events. The ending is expected to be a mystery.
