Venom Animated Movie From Final Destination: Bloodlines Directors in the Works at Sony Pictures Animation

  • Today, Sony Pictures Animation was reported to be developing an animated Venom film, with Zach Lipovsky and Adam B. Stein directing, The Hollywood Reporter said today.
  • Facing franchise fatigue, Sony is turning to animation to keep Venom fresh, building on SPA's Oscar-winning Spider-Verse films as the franchise earned more than $1.8 billion.
  • Directors Zach Lipovsky and Adam B. Stein arrive with their breakout hit Final Destination: Bloodlines, which earned $317.9 million last year; they are represented by Verve, Ground Control and Lichter Grossman and attached to Gremlins 3.
  • No writer is attached yet, and Sony Pictures Animation is opening a writers' room; the film is slated for 2027 but the slow animation process means it is likely years away.
  • Tom Hardy is expected to be involved in some capacity, producers Amy Pascal, Avi Arad and Matt Tolmach are likely to return, and the animated format could enable Spider-Verse-style storytelling.
