It turns out Tom Hardy's Venom is a sneakerhead. For the uninitiated, Hardy stars in the Venom movie series as Eddie Brock, who is also Venom, a raging reptile-like alien symbiote. However, Venom has recently developed a third personality as a hyped sneaker guy.

While filming Venom: the Last Dance, which hits theaters in October, Hardy got into character in the middle of the bustling NYC streets. For a day on the job, the actor wore a plain grey t-shirt, slightly roomy blue jeans, and, wait...Off-White™ x Air Jordan 5 sneakers? Indeed.

Particularly, Hardy wore the collab's "Muslin" colorway, a dusty grey version finished with signature Jordan 5 signature details and, most notably, Off-White™ badges. Honestly, the latter is what truly gave the specific pairs away.

Plus, how could you not stop and stare at Oscar-nominated Tom Hardy wearing one of the most coveted Nike collabs in history?!

Interestingly, Hardy's pairs featured pink laces versus the shoe's standard red, black, or, erm, off-white options. You'd think he'd go black to match his liquid-like villain side. But nah, real Venom guys wear pink, I guess.

Marvel's antihero Venom has received some pretty solid dedicated sneakers over the years, including Kith's recent Marvel collab and BAPE's STA shoes. Crocs even made a Classic Clog in the character's honor.

Perhaps Hardy rocking Venom's previous sneaker efforts would've been too on-the-nose. But Hardy in the sought-after Off-White Jordans? Talk about a Marvel-ous sneaker moment.
