VENOM: Is Riz Ahmed Up For Carnage Role After All... Or Could It Be Chameleon? More Details Emerge

Though yesterday's report indicated that Riz Ahmed wasn't in talks for the role of the villainous Carnage in Sony's Venom movie, some new details have now come to light that might suggest otherwise...

Last night we found out that Rogue One: A Star Wars Story actor Riz Ahmed had entered talks for a role in Sony's upcoming Venom movie along with Matt Smith, Pedro Pascal and Mathias Schoenarts. At the time, we were told that the character was not Carnage, but we're now hearing conflicting reports on that.

Several journos have since stated that it might be Cletus Kasady after all (that was the role Ahmed was originally up for, apparently), but that this is going to be treated as a big reveal in the movie. The Tracking Board's report also seems to hint that the role could actually be The Chameleon - but this might well be Jeff Sneider simply having a bit of fun.

Hopefully we'll get something more solid on this Venom situation soon, but in the meantime be sure to share your thoughts in the usual place.

I'm so sick of the "secret villain" shit. Just have a real antagonist with a real relationship with the hero that develops over the course of the movie, not some stupid "gotcha" trick at the end that only 1/3 of the audience will care about anyway.

Riz is a good actor. He has the chops for any role he plays. THIS STUPID SONY-VERSE BETTER UTILIZE HIM CORRECTLY. Still annoys me it's not all together with Spider-man.

He could definitely play a great carnage, granted I don't have the most knowledge about the character to be honest so just going off the bits that I have read, Sony completely has my attention with this now though, two really strong actors
