In the comics, Weying is the love interest of Eddie Brock and she later assumes the identity of She-Venom.
Williams said that to see her character eventually transform into She-Venom "would be a dream come true!".
The actor also said that Weying's clothes and words were consciously linked to the #MeToo movement.
"I think Anne is a strong character, and very intelligent. I wanted her to be born of the #MeToo world, and I worked hard to convey that with her wardrobe and dialogue," Williams said.
"Venom", directed by Ruben Fleischer and also starring Riz Ahmed and Jenny Slate, releases on October 5.
