Horror icon Tony Todd will gargle with gravel for his new role as Venom in Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 on the PlayStation 5. Insomniac Games confirmed that the Candyman is joining the cast of its 2023 sequel on the PlayStation Blog, adding that Yuri Lowenthal and Nadji Jeter will reprise their roles as Peter Parker and Miles Morales respectively.
“We’ve been fortunate to work with so many incredibly talented actors in our Spider-Man games, and Tony has been such a wonderful addition to the cast,” wrote Ryan Schneider. The project will be headed up by much of the team from the original Marvel’s Spider-Man, with creative director Bryan Intihar and game director Ryan Smith both back on board.
In safe hands, then.

Glad to see this brother getting work in 2021 and beyond 👏🏾💪🏾
Venom voice in the trailer is perfect.
His scene in final destination still gives me the chills lol
I need to watch the Candyman movies. I remember seeing a tiny bit of one of the movies on tv when I was a kid and it freaking me out. Then daring each other to say ‘Candyman’ three times in the mirror at school the next day. But I’ve never actually seen any of them all the way through.
I heard the new Candyman movie is quite good.
Pretty much a perfect casting choice.
@Jmck87 yeah, he was great in that.
This is beyond perfect casting having Venom was hype enough but this sent the hype into orbit. Venom, Venom, Venom, Venom, Venom
I wonder if Venom will be the main villain, or rather an initial enemy you face before teaming up with Peter and Miles against Carnage or something else?!
I definitely predict that Venom will be a playable character in the new game.
Candyman is a legendary classic 1992 horror masterpiece.glad his doing venom voice.tony todd is indeed a icon.spiderman 2 is going to be a amazing game.word up son
@pip_muzz Who knows. I'm 99% certain that was Kraven we heard in the trailer though.
CANDYMAN CANDYMAN CANDYMAN CANDYMAN CANDYMAN
@Keyblade-Dan say Venom 5 times and Venom will appear
@fR_eeBritney you say CANDYMAN 5 times not 3 times, I believe
Just letting you know
@orson it was both of them
@pip_muzz I hope carnage will be there.
We need Venom’s arch nemesis in the game
Nobody is going to mention Night of the Living Dead (1990) I loved that movie!
@anoyonmus ah, maybe that’s why I’m still alive 🤪
@fR_eeBritney I’ve heard the same of the new one so it’s likely worth your time. Other than that though just watch the original, not the sequels. The first is brilliant. The second is schlocky but still enjoyable if you go with it. The third movie is irredeemable.
@fR_eeBritney yeah probably
Good news. Loved Candyman
NO EFFING WAY. His voice is so damn cool! This is great!!!!
@tonyp1987 Duh
@pip_muzz I wonder if you’ll play as venom most of the game as we’ve had a whole game with Peter and miles each. Maybe a lethal protector version, as its Harry Osborn, facing off against kraven. Then Peter and miles have to kill him (venom) at the end to set up the green goblin for the third game
Ps. 2023……maybe released with PS5 Pro?….(c’mon, we know it’s coming!)
I have nothing against this man but whats the point of celebrities? So they can charge a high rate resulting in budgets increase causing games to become safer and hoping that enough customers are able to buy the game and so on and so on.
Control your budgets developers, nobody buys games for celebrities, heck nobody watches movies for celebs.
I found him! ☝🏾☝🏾☝🏾 That guy!
@reek cant wait for the next avengers movie with dave the butcher as thor and Keith who works the deli counter in asda as hawkeye.
@fR_eeBritney I've watched the new Candyman in the cinema last week, haven't watched any other candyman movies and can say that it was ok. Really shines in certain parts, but at times it feels a bit unnecessary. Great horror flick if you feel like just watching one though.
@vapidwolf That's actor as a character. Very different. It's like how everybody wants to see Robert downey as ironman, but not watch dolittle for the actor himself. It's like everybody thinks of norman reedus as death stranding guy but nobody cares if he voices some villian.
Weird hearing Zooms voice from The Flash.
@Snick27 Wait no way, Zoom was voiced by Candyman?! No wonder his performance was so top notch.
