Mountain View, CA (October 5, 2018) – The thrill of motorcycle riding is challenged only by the visceral adrenaline rush of a great action film, and Ducati is looking to amplify that synergy with its role in Sony Pictures’ upcoming motion picture, Venom. The film will be released nationwide October 5, with a customized Scrambler Full Throttle and Scrambler 1100 Special models sharing the spotlight as the title-character’s rides of choice, ridden by Academy Award® nominated actor Tom Hardy.

“Ducati has a long history of ties with the entertainment industry in both film and television,” said Jason Chinnock, Chief Executive Officer, Ducati North America. “With our role in the new movie Venom, we found an organic way to integrate the raw brand of Scrambler with the much-loved Marvel character in many heart-pounding scenes. It’s a perfect match, as we look to entertain motorcyclists on the streets just as Venom is sure to entertain audiences in their seats.”
