\"Venom\"<\/p>\n

With Sony\u2019s\u00a0\u201cThe Amazing Spider-Man\u201d looking to kick-start a Spidey resurgence this summer, the studio is taking a crack at another character associated with the superhero: Venom.<\/p>\n

The studio is negotiating with Josh Trank, the hot director of this winter\u2019s found-footage hit “Chronicle,” to take the reins of the Spidey spin-off, said a person familiar with the project who was not authorized to talk about it publicly. Sony was not immediately available for comment.<\/p>\n

The film would center on the gooey villain who was a mainstay of the Marvel comics and was a nemesis, incarnated by Topher Grace, in the third \u201cSpider-Man\u201d picture in 2007. The character attaches himself to a human host and becomes as powerful as the web-slinging superhero.<\/p>\n

A Venom film has been long-gestating at the studio, dating back at least to 2008 and preceding plans for this summers Marc Webb-Andrew Garfield take on the character. Gary Ross negotiated to direct a Venom film back in 2009 but moved on to other projects, including the upcoming \u201cHunger Games.\u201d<\/p>\n

Jacob Estes \u201cThe Details\u201d wrote a draft of a \u201cVenom\u201d script several years ago, but producers are seeking a new writer, said the source. The Ross version was to craft Venom as less a villain than an antihero. The film also would be seeking a new actor; Grace is not expected to reprise the role<\/p>\n

.With “Venom,” the 27-year-old Trank would not only return to superhero territory but would also bring a flair for shoe-leather storytelling that resonates with audiences: Despite an absence of stars as well as a modest budget, \u201cChronicle\u201d has grossed more than $60 million since coming out last month.<\/p>\n
