Philip Seymour Hoffman To Play Venom?
Deadline reports Sony is loosely talking about casting Philip Seymour Hoffman in the new Spider-Man reboot. Interesting enough it's the villain who got seriously burned in the last film, Venom. Raimi obviously ran the character through the ringer with serious miscasting and making him a third wheel villain. Now it looks like the studio could be trying to re-introduce the anti-hero/villain. I doubt they would make Venom the main villain with talk of heavy weights like The Lizard and Kraven The Hunter rumored for the reboot. I have a feeling it could be the studio finally moving forward with their Venom spin-off written by Rhett Reese and Paul Wernick (Zombieland, Deadpool). Personally I'd rather see Hoffman playing Venom in a solo film instead of Spider-Man. Christoph Waltz who plays villains in both Inglourious Basterds and Green Hornet has also been rumored for the movie.
