Sony has released the second trailer for Venom 3: The Last Dance, revealing more details about the film’s plot. The third movie in the Venom franchise, starring Tom Hardy as Eddie Brock/Venom, dives deeper into the origins of the symbiotes. The trailer suggests that the symbiotes didn’t arrive on Earth by accident—they were fleeing their creator, Knull.
The Final Chapter in Venom’s Journey
Venom 3: The Last Dance wraps up the trilogy, with Eddie and Venom on the run. Hunted by enemies from both Earth and space, they face an impossible choice that could mark the end of their partnership. The official synopsis hints at the emotional toll and high stakes of this final chapter:
“In Venom: The Last Dance, Tom Hardy reprises his role as Venom, one of Marvel’s most iconic and complex characters. Both worlds are pursuing Eddie and Venom. With danger closing in, the duo must make a heartbreaking decision that will bring their journey to an end.”
Introduction of Knull
Knull, a cosmic villain from Marvel comics, makes his big-screen debut in this film. Created by Donny Cates and Ryan Stegman, Knull first appeared in 2018. He quickly became a major figure in Marvel’s universe, especially in titles like Web of Venom and Silver Surfer: Black. Knull’s introduction in Venom: The Last Dance adds a deeper layer to the symbiote storyline, pushing the stakes to cosmic levels.
Star-Studded Cast and Creative Team
Joining Hardy in the film are Chiwetel Ejiofor, Juno Temple, Rhys Ifans, Peggy Lu, Alanna Ubach, and Stephen Graham. Kelly Marcel, who co-wrote the story with Hardy, directs the movie. Marcel has been involved with the Venom franchise from the start, contributing to the success of the previous films.
Box Office Expectations
The Venom series has been a major box office draw. The first movie earned $856 million worldwide, while the sequel, Venom: Let There Be Carnage, brought in $502 million despite pandemic-related challenges. With the excitement surrounding this final chapter, Venom: The Last Dance is expected to perform well when it hits theaters.
