This past weekend has been one of great excitement with the amazingly successful Comic-Con International:San Diego.

Big news came out for Spider-Man 3 and fans were treated to an exclusive peek at the movie, including Venom.

It opens with Tobey Maguire looking into a mirror and opening his shirt to reveal a black costume, with a voice over from Aunt May, “Uncle Ben wouldn’t want us living with revenge in our hearts, just like voices that take you over and turn us into something ugly.” The daunting title card comes on saying “All Will Be Lost,” and then the next scene shows Topher Grace as Eddie Brock walking through a church with a voice over of him asking someone “to do one thing for me. I want you to kill Peter Parker.” Parker also has what appears to be a nightmare sequence where he looks into a bathroom mirror and Venom is a brief flashing screeching reflection. (The movie sounds like it may be very dark, doesn’t it?). The rest of the teaser footage went by way too fast to describe in detail, but we did see Harry Osborn in a black ninja-like suit swinging a samurai sword at Peter Parker and there were extensive fight scenes between Spider-Man and Sandman, which weren’t even close to being finished, but looked quite fantastic. There was also a little more footage of the new Harry Osborn/Goblin character, which Raimi explained later wouldn’t be called either the “Green Goblin” or the “Hobgoblin,” but it is Harry using his father’s Goblin equipment to get revenge on Peter Parker. (So that’s two people who don’t like Peter Parker… not to mention the Sandman!)

The footage ended with Topher’s Eddie Brock feeling something black and gooey hit his hand–obviously the symbiote–and it cuts to the very first image of the computerized Venom, who looks exactly like he does in the comic book if rendered in 3D, looking straight into the camera with his jaws wide open and drooling. If you’re a fan of Venom, you’re not likely to be disappointed.

The teaser was exclusive to CCISD and won’t be available online. Also at the Comic Con were 4 posters for SM3 including this image that is now a wallpaper at the official Spider-Man 3 website.

“Becoming Venom” was created using a screen shot of the SM3 teaser trailer, the above wallpaper and a fan made image of Venom.
