MARVEL
Developed by New Line Cinema in 1997 from a screenplay by David S. Goyer, Venom was conceived as a dark, standalone Marvel antihero movie with Dolph Lundgren in the title role. Eddy Brock, a troubled journalist, becomes bonded to an alien symbiote after it escapes from a distant world, transforming him into the powerful and conflicted Venom. As Venom struggles to control his violent instincts, he is hunted by the Blood Hunters, while his childhood acquaintance Cletus Kasady becomes host to the murderous symbiote Carnage. The two symbiotes ultimately clash in a brutal battle, with Eddy forced to embrace the creature within him to stop Carnage. The ambitious project never reached production, partly due to complicated Spider-Man rights issues, leaving Goyer's 1997 script as one of Marvel's most intriguing lost films.
