In the comics, Venom varies between being an outright super villain and an anti-hero, and in this movie, it looks like Eddie will try his hardest to ensure that the symbiote only harms bad people, which is great when it comes to keeping the innocent safe.
The trailer’s money shot, however, is at the very end, when Eddie fully transforms into Venom and sticks out that long tongue before presumably eating or dismembering that criminal.
But if you’re an antagonist who ends up in Venom’s grip, then God help you.
Not only does the new cinematic Venom have the black tendril thing going on, but the symbiote itself also communicates directly to Eddie Brock, and I have to say, the alien’s voice is super unsettling.
