VENOM: Jenny Slate and Scott Haze's Characters Reportedly Revealed

Filming has been underway on Sony’s Venom movie for a few months, but there’s still a lot we don’t know about it. For example, who are actors Jenny Slate and Scott Haze playing in the film? Well, a new rumor may have the answer to that one.

According to MCUExchange, Jenny Slate is playing Dora Skirth, a scientist who works at Life Foundation, a company that plays a big role in Venom. It sounds like Skirth is an original character, but it’s possible she could be an amalgamation of several minor characters from the comics.

Additionally, Scott Haze is said to be playing Roland Treece, the founder of Treece International and a part of the Life Foundation’s Board of Directors with Carlton Drake (Riz Ahmed).

There is still no word on who is playing the villainous Cletus Kasady, aka Carnage. Hopefully, that character will be confirmed soon. (Personally, I wouldn’t be shocked if this was Woody Harrelson’s character.)

Venom is scheduled to hit theaters on October 5th, 2018. The first installment of Sony’s Marvel Universe stars Tom Hardy, Riz Ahmed, Michelle Williams, Jenny Slate, Reid Scott, Scott Haze, and Woody Harrelson. Ruben Fleischer directs from a script by Scott Rosenberg and Jeff Pinkner.
