Venom: What does the Marvel movie post-credit scene mean?

Warning – The article below contains spoilers as it is described in detail in the Venom post-credit scene (and the sequel content that hit theaters last October). Please continue if you have not seen it yet. For the rest, jump slightly down.

It has become a tradition: any self-respecting superhero film should have its own post-credit scene, this bonus in the form of a blink of an eye or an announcement of what writers and producers are preparing for us. The first item in the universe that Sony wanted to create with the Spider-Man catalog, but without Spider-Man, Venom, which aired on TMC last night, is no exception to the rule.

A few months after the end of his first solo adventure, we meet Eddie Brock, once again a journalist who goes to jail to talk to an inmate who directly asked to meet him. A man whose name we will never know until the credits tell us, but a legend precedes him.

Because Eddie is warned that he risks falling apart if he does not follow a few safety instructions. Then he enters a huge cell, in the middle of which is … a cage. Inside, a man with curly red hair, played by Woody Harrelson, was announced at the film casting until he was completely left in the photos and trailers and even in all the promotions.

And for good reason: the actor finally has only one scene, this one in which he greets the anti-hero in the face of an “investigator-serial killer” with a proposal to go beyond the cliché.

Which does not prevent him from playing secret cards and, above all, to declare that he will “Massacre” Upon his release from prison he knew that this word could be written by a “VS”, Since the dialogue very clearly states the coming of the carnage in the sequel. From his real name Cletus Cassade (who appears in the post-scene subtitles to the opposite of Woody Harrelson’s name), the latter is nothing more than a serial killer contaminated with a symbiote interfering with his blood, giving him a reddish tinge and giving him equality. More deadly than Venom.

But then why not make Carnage the first opus antagonist, just to start with style? “We firmly believed that the first film needed space to build itself”Director Ruben Fleischer responded to this topic Collider.

“I think Carnage is a character that everyone, especially fans, wants to see in the world of Venom, but we did not want to spoil it in the first film.”He continues. “This one is exclusively focused on Eddie and Venom, their relationship and character development. From there, we felt the need to give them space. And choosing the strongest of their opponents feels like a continuation for us. As brilliant as it is natural.”

Carnage’s character is featured in the feature film Venom: Let The Be Carnage, which hit theaters last October.
