Venom Official Poster Only Has Eyes for the Symbiote
Sony's new poster for its upcoming Venom movie is minimalist and a perfect tease for the October release.
Sony's also teasing something else, posting "Tomorrow. #Venom" on social media. It's hard not to want to speculate about exactly what it is, but there's a lot to tease out between now and the October 5 release.
The all-black poster is punctuated by Venom's eyes, perhaps the most defining characteristic of the symbiote other than a prehensile tongue and rows of fangs. But in spite of its minimalism, it could stand on its own without even naming the film as a poster for Venom.
Here's a high-resolution copy of the poster for you to check out:
9 Epic Black Panther Cosplay Photos
The Black Panther movie is just over a week away, and some incredibly cool cosplay has come out of the overwhelming excitement for this movie.
One cosplayer in particular - Andrien Gbinigie, from Montreal - caught our eye for the epic quality of his photos, which is doubly impressive because this is his first ever cosplay. Click right to see all the shots:
The photographer featured is E Vic Rosa, otherwise known as lucidvphotography.
Andrien told IGN, "My favourite thing about being a cosplayer has to be fully embodying the character I'm portraying. In my case, as this was my first costume, it felt fantastic seeing comments and reactions from people who said I did a good job looking like the Black Panther. It made all that working out 4 times a week worth it."

Tomb Raider Arcade Game Released to Promote Movie
It looks like there will be new Tomb Raider game sooner than thought, although it's not the next triple-A installment from Square Enix you're all hoping for. The film is getting a promotional tie-in with an arcade game that will appear at select locations of US restaurant chain Dave & Busters.
Arcade Heroes reports the new title will be a gun game in the style of Rabbids Hollywood. The cabinet is the same, "with the artwork, marquee and pistols changed to fit with the new game."
Pictures of the cabinet were snapped and posted on Reddit. Like Rabbids Hollywood, there appear to be three levels, and the logo is very much in keeping with that of the first rebooted title in 2013.

Pacific Rim Uprising's Steven DeKnight has dabbled in the superhero genre during his stint as showrunner on the first season of Daredevil, and he's not short on ideas when it comes to the possibility of other superhero TV shows. DeKnight revealed that his pick for Bruce in a Batman TV show would be Jon Hamm.
The question came via Twitter, asking who DeKnight would cast in the role if a series was ever commissioned on the STARZ network.
Hmm, so many choices. If it’s an older Batman, Jon Hamm would be great. https://t.co/1I4ZwYHBri
