Riz Ahmed is in talks to join the cast of the Sony Picturesr Venom movie as a Marvel Comics character. The studio struck a deal with Marvel Studios to introduce the web-slinging Peter Parker, played by Tom Holland, to the Marvel Cinematic Universe. However, Sony is still planning its own superhero universe using characters typically associated with Spider-Man. Ahmed recently starred in the new new Star Wars standalone film "Rogue One" and the series "The Night Of" on HBO.
