Venom

Trivia: When Ann and Eddie are on their date, Ann reminds Eddie of his firing from the Daily Globe. In the Spider-Man comics, Eddie Brock was a reporter for the Daily Globe, a rival newspaper of the Daily Bugle. In the comics, a string of murders were being carried out by a serial killer named the Sin-Eater. Eddie interviewed a man who claimed to be the Sin-Eater but Spider-Man captured the real one and the man that Eddie interviewed was found out to be a compulsive confessor. This incident caused Eddie to get fired from the Daily Globe and sometime after becoming Venom, moves to San Francisco after agreeing with Spider-Man that they will not bother each other on the condition that Eddie no longer commits any more crimes.

Trivia: When Eddie walks into Mrs. Chen's store, Eddie asks Venom what he would like to eat. Venom responds that he wants tater tots and chocolate. In Venom: The Hunger, it's discovered that the symbiotes need a chemical called phenethylamine to survive. This chemical can be found in both brains and in chocolate.

Trivia: The law firm Anne Weying works for is named Michelinie and McFarlane after Venom's creators, David Michelinie and Todd McFarlane.

Trivia: At the start the surviving astronaut is called Jameson. Per the comics and previous Spider-Man films he's Jonah Jameson's son.

Trivia: Tom Hardy took the role of Venom to please his son, saying "I wanted to do something my son could watch. So I did something where I bite people's heads off."

Trivia: Tom Hardy said Venom is the coolest Marvel character as "he has a brazen swagger and a zero foxtrot attitude."
