Tom Hardy had only nice things to say about his Venom: Let There Be Carnage co-star Woody Harrelson in a new interview ahead of the film's release.
"I think Woody delivers on a level that is...well, you know, he is deliciously wicked," Hardy told ET Canada. "A brilliant actor, perfect."
Let There Be Carnage director Andy Serkis doubled down on what Hardy had to say, adding, "...[Harrelson is] such an amazing joy, isn't he? He's a brilliant team player as well. He's fantastic. He's awesome."
Created by writer David Michelinie and artist Erik Larsen, the Cletus Kasady/Carnage character debuted in 1991's The Amazing Spider-Man #344 and has been presented as an adversary to both Spider-Man and Venom.
It was announced in August 2019 that Harrelson joined the sequel to 2018's Venom as the villainous symbiote. Fans may recall that the actor actually made his first appearance as the character in the mid-credits scene of the first film when Hardy's Eddie Brock visited the serial killer in prison for an interview.
The first trailer for Venom: Let There Be Carnage was released in early August and centered on Harrelson's character. After opening with a shot of Harrelson as Cletus Kasady transforming into Carnage, the clip hinted that several other superpowered individuals -- one of whom appeared to be Shriek -- will also appear in the film. As some fans have pointed out, Carnage formed a relationship with Shriek in the Maximum Carnage crossover event.
Directed by Andy Serkis, Venom: Let There Be Carnage stars Tom Hardy and Woody Harrelson. The film arrives in theaters on Oct. 1.
