Andy Serkis certainly isn't shying away from casting A-List talent in
Venom 2 as it's been revealed today that Naomie Harris is being lined up to take on the role of Shriek. In the comics, she's a love interest to Carnage so we can clearly expect their twisted dynamic to play out on the big screen as well.
The actress is perhaps best known for playing the rebooted, tough as nails Eve Moneypenny in the
James Bond franchise. She was also nominated for an Academy Award for her work in Moonlight.
Harris joins a cast which includes Tom Hardy, Woody Harrelson, and Michelle Williams. We can probably expect more names to be added in the coming weeks but
Venom 2 already has its villains, so it will likely just be supporting players from this point on. It remains to be seen whether Tom Holland's Spider-Man will appear.
Either way, it's currently thought that
Venom 2 will arrive in theaters next October so stay tuned for more as we have it.
