Sony has set a release date for its Spider-Man spin-off film, Venom.
The Wrap reports Venom will open in theaters on October 5, 2018. That release date was originally occupied by Warner Bros.' Aquaman solo film before it recently got pushed back to December.
The Mummy director and The Amazing Spider-Man 2 writer Alex Kurtzman will direct, but no word yet on who'll star as Venom.
This version of the Marvel villain will reportedly not exist in the shared MCU as Tom Holland's Spider-Man. Sony first revived the film project last year and according to last year's reports, the film was “being envisioned as a franchise apart from and unrelated to the upcoming Spider-Man movie in the works with actor Tom Holland.”
Avi Arad and Matt Tolmach, the producers of the Spider-Man movies for Sony, are also producing Venom, with Dante Harper (Edge of Tomorrow) penning the script.
Meanwhile, the first solo film for the MCU/Sony version of Spider-Man, Spider-Man: Homecoming, hits theaters on July 7.
