A "Venom" film is currently in the works. Here's the latest update: http://g4tv.com/thefeed/blog/post/694623/Confirmed-Venom-Spin-Off-Film-In-The-Works.html

Actor Terrence Howard spoke out recently about being left out of the "Iron Man" sequel film cast: http://g4tv.com/thefeed/blog/post/694538/Terrence-Howard-Lashes-Out-At-Marvel.html

Recall that Howard, in the film Iron Man, played Jim Rhodes, an Air Force officer and friend of billionaire industrialist Tony Stark(played by Robert Downey, Jr). Jim Rhodes, in the comics, eventually dons an alternate gray and blue colored armor made by Stark and becomes a superhero called "War Machine". The consensus among fans of the "Iron Man" character and live action film was that Rhodes would suit up in the "War Machine" armor in the sequel film. Terrence Howard was not cast for the role in the sequel, the film studio opting to sign actor Don Cheadle to play Rhodes.

Both Terrence Howard and Marvel Entertainment have offered their own versions of why Howard was not cast in the IM sequel film.
