Sony Pictures has dropped the first official trailer for Venom: The Last Dance, which marks the third and final film for Tom Hardy as the deadly and powerful anti-hero, Venom. The character is one of Spider-Man’s most popular rivals and was the main antagonist in last year’s Spider-Man 2 video game. In the new trailer, Eddie Brock and Venom are on the run, and to make things worse, Venom’s home has found them.
The filmmakers seem to be enjoying Apple TV+’s Ted Lasso so much that they brought actors from the show, including Cristo Fernández and Juno Temple. Fernández was seen in the end credits scene from Spider-Man: No Way Home. In the Venom: The Last Dance trailer, we see him with Ejiofor’s character. Does this mean the scene in No Way Home was a variant of Fernández’s character?
The first two Venom films have been a big hit for Sony, earning over $1.3 billion at the box office worldwide. However, this will be the last time we’ll see Hardy as the symbiote.
“I think you got to swing for the fences with these things,” Hardy tells Forbes. “It’s the last one and we want to go out with a bang, and lay the foundations for optionality and possibilities because it’s been such a great ride. I’ve thoroughly enjoyed working within that field and remit of a big film with big ideas, and a lot of people looking to you to back that up.”
