Missed opportunity. Peele should take Venom, and turn it into the horror movie it should be.
Frankly, Venom is a missed opportunity for a Body Horror superhero (I mean, Hulk is the ultimate Marvel Body Horror superhero, as anyone reading Immortal Hulk will tell you ad inifinitum if you give them a chance), IMO. And if I think "Body Horror" I think Cronenberg.

Peele would do really well with any of the other, more traditional, horror supers: Morbius (shudder), Man-Thing, Man-Wolf, Man-Frankenstein, etc. He'd give them a spin you never saw coming and rebirth them into something more subtle and infinitely more horrifying.

I think that I'm rather see Peele try his hand at a particular DC character, rather than Marvel. Phantom Stranger. It could be an anthology. If nothing else he makes a great character to introduce other stories, in Crypt Keeper fashion.

I know Mike Flanagan is supposed to write a script for a Clayface movie but I’d love to see him do a character like Swamp Thing or Constantine.

Venom is only body horror on the surface, which can be seen when we look at its original incarnation, as Spider-Man's black costume, a story that has little body horror, as it is about control, identity, and possession. That's more Peele's territory.

Rumours about a second Constantine movie, starring Keanu, keep floating around, with Francis Lawrence to direct. Even on IMDB.

 



Not gonna start a meta thread because replies would be unsatisfying, but allowable title length for threads is too damn long.

That's fair! But I'd love to see what Peele would do with Mystique...
