Okay, here is a plot summary for the English version of the movie Venom (2018), directed by Tom Holland:
Logline: A brilliant but disgraced scientist, Dr. Michael Hall, is accidentally imbued with the powers of an alien symbiote. This symbiote forms a bond with a news photographer, Eddie Brock, giving them superhuman abilities but also a shared, aggressive consciousness.
Plot Summary:
The film follows Dr. Michael Hall (Tom Holland), a brilliant scientist working for the biotech company Eidolon. He is passionate about finding cures for diseases but struggles for recognition under his condescending boss, Dr. Curt Connors (Rosalind Chao). Hall successfully creates a serum using alien DNA, but his unethical superior, Richard S. Parker (Michael Keaton), a ruthless CEO, demands the formula for profit, forcing Hall to destroy his work in protest.
Meanwhile, struggling photojournalist Eddie Brock (Rami Malek) desperately needs money to pay his bills and save his failing relationship with his ex-girlfriend Anne Weying (Michelle Williams). He accepts a job offer from Parker to infiltrate a demonstration against Eidolon, framing them for dangerous experiments.
During the demonstration, Hall's lab is attacked. While defending himself, Hall is exposed to the alien technology. The technology attaches to him, forming a black, alien symbiote suit that grants him superhuman strength, speed, and agility. Initially, Hall believes he is safe inside the suit, but the symbiote begins to influence his mind, turning him into a violent, monstrous being known as Venom. Hall is presumed dead.
The symbiote seeks a new host. Parker, desperate to control the suit for himself, is attacked and killed by Venom. The symbiote escapes and attaches to the weakened Eddie Brock in the morgue after Parker's body is taken for an autopsy. Brock, horrified, initially rejects the symbiote, but it reassures him that it will help him achieve his goals – specifically, to expose the corruption of Eidolon and exact revenge on Parker and Connors.
Now bonded, Venom emerges. They are initially a force of chaos, but Brock's conscience remains somewhat intact, leading to internal conflict. They seek out Anne, who is shocked but intrigued by the entity inside Eddie. They also seek Connors, who has been secretly experimenting with the alien DNA, believing it can cure his own regenerative condition (a nod to the comics' relationship with the Lizard).
Venom confronts Connors, but the scientist manages to detach a portion of the symbiote, which falls into the hands of the police. Fearing public panic, the police call in a special task force led by Special Agent Hooper (J.K. Simmons), who has extensive experience dealing with dangerous biological threats.
As the symbiote bond grows stronger, Brock's humanity diminishes, though brief flashes of Eddie occasionally surface. Venom and Brock (now often referred to as "Venom") attempt to find the missing piece of the symbiote and expose Parker's corruption, leading them into a confrontation with Hooper's team. During the chaos, the symbiote temporarily separates from Brock, revealing its intelligence and desire for freedom.
In the climax, Venom, seeing the error of its ways and recognizing the danger it poses, separates from Brock permanently. It confronts the symbiote piece in police custody and rips it off, destroying it. As it does, the main symbiote suit also disintegrates, leaving Venom stranded in human form. Before vanishing, Venom gives a cryptic warning about other symbiotes that might be coming and thanks Eddie for letting him see the good in people.
The film ends with Eddie Brock, now alone and jobless, finding a small, discarded piece of the symbiote suit in the debris, hinting that their bond might not be truly over.
In essence, Venom is a origin story for the character, focusing on the uneasy alliance between the human Eddie Brock and the alien symbiote, exploring themes of good versus evil, identity, and the fight for control.
