If he'd had a good run of films until this he'd be fine but this is his third dud in a row after his acclaimed debut. This will make money though so he might escape unscathed and not have to fully retreat back to small indies. But doing a Jekyll/Hyde movie after Venom? Doubtful. I'm not sure Venom is a 'dud'. It could have been MUCH worse!! I guess we'll have to wait and see until after the weekend. I've had my doubts about this one for a long time - and the fact that Chris himself has had to be reminded - twice! - that he's attached to this tells a big story!
It's sitting at 28% on RT - so Suicide Squad & BvS levels. Critically it's a dud. It won't be as big at the B.O. as either of those but will do better than say mega money loser Green Lantern - b/c it cost half as much and should do much better over seas. It's not the way Sony hoped to start their own Sony Spider-Man Marvel Universe or hoped to hitch it to the MCU's coat tails through the Spider-Man connection. They're probably more to blame than the director but he'll get most of the blame any way. Yeah, the lack of mention of the project for over a year while new ones pop up and Chris have to be re-minded he's attached does not bode well. Even before this they didn't seem to have a filmable script yet.

Can somebody remind, please? Is this the one that Ellen DeGeneres is/was involved in? Yes, she's a producer on it.

Thought I'd drag this up again. I'm pretty sure that this is not happening. Ruben Fleischer is doing Zombieland 2 now, and with Chris seemingly busy for most of this year I sadly think this isn't happening any time soon.

I've recently seen a couple of articles that seem to suggest this is going ahead.
Unsure if there is a reliable source or not, or if it's just fishing seeing as Chris is in the news right now with all the Endgame stuff.

I've read today that this project is officially scrapped. The studio have dropped it.
I'm not surprised, it's been 3 years since he was announced as starring, and there's been zero news!

Maybe there's something else lined up.
