Everyone knows Eddie Brock, the original host of Venom. But in comics, the Venom symbiote has a long legacy of hosts, including none other than Peter Parker's notorious frenemy Eugene 'Flash' Thompson. Now, Tony Revolori, who portrays Flash in the MCU, is opening up about his hope that he could someday take on the role of Venom on the big screen.

"Yeah, you know, look, I've read the comics that everyone's read," Revolori tells The Direct. "I would be really, really f***ing excited to do something like that. That would be really cool. I have no idea what or if or when or maybe, and we'll see. Look, the hope is to do it, the dream is to do it. And we'll see if it ever happens. And if it doesn't, they're making great shit regardless that I will watch over and over and over again, and I'm just happy to have been a part of it."
