Clark Backo Joins Cast Of Sony's 'Venom 3' Movie

Sony Japan Mobility Show 2023, in Tokyo

Canadian-Cameroonian actor Clark Backo, known for her roles in 'The Changeling' and 'Letterkenny,' has been confirmed to join the cast of Sony and Marvel's highly anticipated film, 'Venom 3.' The movie, set to be released on Nov. 8, will see Backo alongside stars Tom Hardy, Juno Temple, and Chiwetel Ejiofor, with specific character details for Backo being kept under wraps.

'Venom 3' is being directed by Kelly Marcel, marking her feature directorial debut. Marcel, who also co-wrote the screenplay with Tom Hardy, has previously worked on the first two installments of the 'Venom' series. The film is being produced by a team that includes Avi Arad, Matt Tolmach, Amy Pascal, and Hutch Parker.

Backo's recent work includes a standout performance in the limited series 'The Changeling' on Apple TV+, where she portrayed Emma, a character dealing with emotional struggles. Her role earned her a nomination for an Indie Spirit award for breakthrough performance in a new scripted series. Additionally, Backo is recognized for her role as Rosie in the popular Canadian comedy 'Letterkenny,' which recently concluded its 12th and final season on Hulu.

On the small screen, Backo has appeared in a variety of shows, including 'Supernatural,' 'The Handmaid's Tale,' 'Designated Survivor,' and 'The Girlfriend Experience.' Her film credits include roles in 'I Want You Back' and 'Seven in Heaven.'

'Venom 3' marks Backo's entry into big-budget filmmaking, following the success of the first two 'Venom' films, which collectively grossed $1.3 billion worldwide. Sony's announcement of the third installment came in April 2022, following the post-credits cameo of Venom in 'Spider-Man: No Way Home.'

Represented by a team of industry professionals, Backo's involvement in 'Venom 3' signals a significant milestone in her career as she ventures into the realm of blockbuster cinema.
