Venom Movie Plans

Alex Kurtzman talks to CBR about the current state of Sony's planned Venom movie:

And where will "Venom" fit in?
"Venom" will come after "Sinister Six" -- I think is the plan.
And you'll direct that?  Yeah.
Do you have any connective tissue planned between "Sinister Six" and "Venom," given that both have villainous elements?
Everything is still on the table right now. Because it's a universe outside of the Spider-Man universe, even though it's connected to it, those movies have to stand on their own. So, we'll see. We'll see how it goes.

It feels like ever since ASM 2's luke warm response, this expanded universe has been put on the back burner.  While I am excited (as I'm sure everyone checking out this site is) for Venom to redeem himself on the big screen, I am more than willing to wait for him to be done right in a solo film.
