Venom 2 Director Andy Serkis Says Tom Hardy Helped Write Sequel Movie

<p dir="ltr">While Andy Serkis was only just <a href="https://www.gamespot.com/articles/venom-2-brings-on-andy-serkis-as-director/1100-6468920/">named director of the upcoming sequel to the Venom movie</a>, lots of work is being done on the project already. Serkis appeared at the TCA press tour to discuss his upcoming turn as the Ghost of Christmas Past in FX's A Christmas Carol, and also took the time to speak briefly about the film.</p><p dir="ltr">"I'm right in the beginning stages, so I've got some very clear ideas about the journey, [and what] I'd like to see visually, and how we can take the characters into another direction," he explained.</p><p dir="ltr">However, Serkis also revealed that Tom Hardy, who stars as the titular Venom, is hard at work on the film's story. "Tom was very involved with the writing--with [screenwriter] Kelly Marcel--of the new story," he said. "So it's very much centered around their take."</p><p dir="ltr">For now, though, Serkis is simply looking forward to what's to come. "I'm excited to work with all the great actors who are involved. It's a fantastic franchise," he said. "I'm really honored to have been asked to direct it. And it feels like it's a very, again, very contemporary story. And it's I think it's going to be, hopefully, a story piece of cinema."</p><p dir="ltr">Still, even with a massive project like Venom on the horizon, Serkis has no plans to stop acting altogether to focus on directing. "I love doing both. I absolutely love doing both," he admitted. "And man, it's a wonderful thing to be able to go from the intimacy of playing a single character and seeing the world through that character's point of view to stepping back and envisioning and being part of creating, you know, the whole picture."</p><p>A release date for Venom 2 has not been <a href="https://www.gamespot.com/articles/venom-2-release-date-possibly-revealed/1100-6463402/">officially announced</a>.</p>
