Tom Hardys much-anticipated "Venom" sequel has been delayed by eight months amid the ongoing COVID-19 crisis.
The second installment in the action fantasy series, directed by Andy Serkis, was slated to release on October 2, 2020.
The sequel, officially titled "Venom: Let There Be Carnage", will instead launch eight months later on June 25, 2021, reports variety.com.
In 2018, "Venom" introduced Hardy as Eddie Brock and Venom. It follows the popular Marvel anti-hero as he transforms from a go-getter journalist to powerful alien symbiote. The film put the conflict of good versus bad in the centrestage.
Serkis is directing Sony's follow-up to "Venom", which sees Hardy again assume the alien symbiote. The first film became a surprise box office hit, earning $855 million globally. Woody Harrelson, Michelle Williams, Reid Scott and Naomie Harris will also appear in the sequel.
By postponing "Venom" until next year, Sony has reshuffled nearly every movie scheduled to release in 2020. The studio already pushed back many of its major films, including "Morbius" (from July 31, 2020 to March 19, 2021), "Ghostbusters: Afterlife" (from July 10, 2020 to March 5, 2021) and Tom Holland's "Uncharted" (from March 5, 2021 to Oct. 8, 2021).
