Venom: Let There Be Carnage’s trailer finally arrived to appease impatient fans, and so far it looks like the Venom sequel is making the right kind of impact. The first Venom 2 footage featured the long-awaited moment of Woody Harrelson‘s Cletus Kasady making his debut as Carnage, the murderous crimson-and-black symbiote that bonds with Cletus Kasady, turning the serial killer into a super-powered serial killer monster. Venom: Let There Be Carnage’s entire premise hinges on making Carnage an exciting antagonist – both visually and narratively.

Well, if social media reactions are any indication, director Andy Serkis has nailed the visual aspect of Carnage’s live-action debut. He’s also clearly succeeded in getting Woody Harrelson’s Cletus Kasady a better wig!

A lot of fans are more than happy with how Woody Harrelson’s Carnage turned out. No problems detected.ย
Perfect Then, Perfect Now
Woody Harrelson as Carnage wouldโve been perfect casting in 1995 and itโs perfect casting now.

This fan makes it clear that whether it’s Woody Harrelson in hisย Cheersย heyday – or Woody Harrelson now – it’s still perfect casting as Cletus Kasady/Carnage. We agree.ย

Honestly Woody Harrelson fits perfect as carnage. I had doubts after the first movie but Iโm blown away pic.twitter.com/vfp3QFa7zv

There were a lot of Marvel fans who were left having doubts about Harrelson’s casting as Carnage – especially after that post-credits scene in the firstย Venomย movie. Thisย Let There Be Carnageย trailer has blown a lot of those doubts out of the water.ย

A lot of Marvel fans are already throwing down chips to bet that Woody Harrelson’s Carnage will be one of the G.O.A.T. villains of any comic book movie. Let’s hope so!ย
Maniacs Will Save The Movies

Insane woody Harrelson and bat shit fucked Tom Hardy are coming to save cinema
The movie theater industry is crazy right now. It may take a couple maniacs to cure that industry insanity. Real talk: September may be the first big run to see the box office truly bounce back.ย Venom 2ย could be instrumental in that.ย

Which actor will chew the most scenery while pretending to interact with his “other?” Tom Hardy or Woody Harrelson? Either way, fans are going to have a lot of fun watching them compete in this way.ย
