Venom 3 Update Confirms What We All Suspected About Tom Hardy’s Marvel Movie
Venom: The Last Dancedirector Kelly Marcel has teased more symbiote stories following the conclusion of Tom Hardy’s trilogy. Serving as the more successful entries in Sony’s Spider-Man Universe, it has been revealed that the upcomingthreequel will be the last time Hardy plays either Eddie Brock or voices the Venom symbiote.Venom: The Last Dancealso servesas Marcel’s directorial debut, after having been directly involved in writing theVenomtrilogy’s previous two movies.
Speaking at the Sony panel at this year’sNew York Comic-ConwhichScreen Rantattended, Marcel revealed that the plan had always been to wrap up Eddie and Venom’s story in a three-movie arc. However, the director suggested that the final movie will containEaster eggs that could potentially set up future symbiote appearances, pointing to the vast array of stories in the original comics. Check out her comments below:
This is the last Venom movie. We always saw this as 3 pictures and we wanted to tell Eddie and Venom’s story in 3 movies. The arc closes here but as you know there are lots of symbiotes stories in the comics.
What Marcel’s Comments Mean For The Future Of Sony’s Spider-Man Universe
Marcel Has Already Hinted At More To Come From Venom’s Maker
While it’s still unclear who is set to play Venom’s original creator,the primordial deity known as Knull, his forthcoming appearance inVenom: The Last Dancehas already been teased asonly his introduction into Sony’s Spider-Man Universe.With Marcel previously describing Knull as “way too powerful for ‘one and done’,” it would seem that audiences are bound to see more of the shadowy character who stands proudly among the pantheon of Marvel’s most dangerous villains.
The question remains, however, which of Sony’s Marvel characters could potentially stand against Knull and his symbiotes once Eddie Brock and Venom are out of the picture.
As the one responsible for crafting the parasitic lifeforms known as the Klyntar, or symbiotes,any of Knull’s future appearances are likely to be connected with the parasitic creatures. Just as Marcel points out, Marvel Comics has already introduced several other symbiotes beyond Venom, many of which are directly connected to the otherworldly threat of their original master.

The final trailer for Venom: The Last Dance has been released, offering insight into the film’s villain: the Marvel Comics character of Knull.
The question remains, however, which of Sony’s Marvel characters could potentially stand against Knull and his symbiotes once Eddie Brock and Venom are out of the picture. While Stephen Graham’s Toxin could likely be one of the Easter eggs Marcel refers to, most viewers wouldideally like to see that responsibility fall to Spider-Man himself.
Our Take On Future Symbiote Movies
It’s Time For Sony’s Spider-Man Universe To Bring In Its Titular Character
For years, audiences have wished to see Spider-Man and symbiote team up, following the less-than-ideal version of Venom portrayed by Topher Grace in 2007’sSpider-Man3.However, the curious intricacies of Sony’s deals with Marvel Studios that allow Tom Holland’s Spider-Man to appear in the MCU have largely prevented such a phenomenon.
WhileSpider-Man: No Way Homefeatured a universe-hopping cameo from Hardy and hinted at a symbiote making its way into the MCU, theVenommovies have been the most successful entries in Sony’s Spider-Man Universe. As such, the studio may intend to keep all future appearances to themselves. Instead, perhaps the ideal way to develop more symbiote movies afterVenom: The Last Dancewould be for Sony to finally look at bringing Andrew Garfield back forThe Amazing Spider-Man 3and give him the alien showdown that he originally missed out on.
