We’ve got quite a while before the third Venom movie oozes its way onscreen, but the goopy anti-hero played by Tom Hardy has made a tentacle-pulled leap forward. The Hollywood Reporter has announced that screenwriter Kelly Marcel will do double-duty as director for Venom 3.

Marcel not only co-wrote the first two Venom movies and collaborated with Hardy on the story for the third film, but has been working with this actor ever since his 2008 film Bronson.
