Chiwetel Ejiofor joins Tom Hardy in Venom 3

Earlier we reported that Venom 3 will mark the directorial debut of Kelly Marcel, who co-wrote Venom and was the sole writer of Venom: Let There Be Carnage. 

Tom Hardy, who plays the titular role, is joined by Chiwetel Ejiofor in Venom 3. The Oscar-nominated actor is no stranger to the realm of comic books; he just returned in the role of Baron Mordo in Marvel Studios' Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness, which made its debut last summer.

Ejiofor most recently appeared alongside Emilia Clarke in In The Pod Generation. 

Meanwhile, next up for Ejiofor is Rob Peace, which he is also directing. The actor is also starring in Netflix’s The Old Guard 2.
