Poison: Let there be carnage “present to the events of ‘The Matrix: Resurrecciones'”

Footage for The Venom: Let There Be Carnage shows an unexpected glimpse into the revival of The Matrix, as the two sequels share the same filming location.

Both films were shot in San Francisco in February 2020. While this caused some production difficulties, the bonus, for the Venom sequel at least, was that they were able to incorporate the helicopters used in The Matrix Resurrections into the background footage.

Speaking to Screen Rant, Venom: Let There Be Carnage director Christopher Cusiak said, “The helicopters were actually in the Matrix movie. The Matrix was filming at the same time, so we caught some of their activities on camera.”

Helicopters can be seen in Venom: Let There Be Carnage during a scene where Eddie Brock (Tom Hardy) is on top of the Coit Tower in San Francisco. Brock states that the police are chasing them, and helicopters are seen flying in the chase.

However, the co-location made some hiccups. “A lot of our driving shots disappeared because the Matrix took over the entire downtown area,” Kosiak said. “We ended up moving a scene to the top of the parking lot because we couldn’t get to the areas we wanted because of the matrix. But if we were there first, it probably would have gone the other way.”

In a two-star NME review, Venom: Let There Be Carnage described it as “a bizarre couple’s comedy caught in a poor-quality superhero movie.”

Directed by Andy Serkis, the sequel stars Tom Hardy, Michelle Williams, Naomi Harris, Red Scott, Stephen Graham, and Woody Harrelson.
