"‘Venom: The Last Dance" Final Trailer Released

Sony Pictures has dropped the final trailer for “Venom: The Last Dance,” the final movie in the Spider-Man villain trilogy.

Tom Hardy will return as the lethal protector Eddie Brock/Venom in the film, also starring Chiwetel Ejiofor, Juno Temple, Rhys Ifans, Peggy Lu, Alanna Ubach, and Stephen Graham.

According to the logline, “Eddie and Venom are on the run. Hunted by both of their worlds and with the net closing in, the duo are forced into a devastating decision that will bring the curtains down on Venom and Eddie’s last dance.”

Venom was last seen in the MCU’s “Spider-Man: No Way Home” post-credits scene in 2021. In it, the villain felt the effects of Dr. Strange’s (Benedict Cumberbatch) haywire multiverse spell, which transported different Spider-Man villains into the mainline MCU.

At the end of “Venom: Let There Be Carnage”, the brain-eating symbiotic was teleported into the MCU and saw Tom Holland’s Peter Parker on a news broadcast, but in “No Way Home,” he’s zapped back to his universe — but not before leaving behind a piece of his symbiote.

Sony first announced the third movie was in the works during its CinemaCon presentation in April 2022. The project will be first Venom appearance since “Spider-Man: No Way Home.”

Kelly Marcel will make her feature directorial debut with the project. She also wrote the screenplay from a story she developed with Hardy. Avi Arad, Matt Tolmach, Amy Pascal, Hutch Parker, Marcel, and Hardy are producing.

The first two “Venom” movies (2018’s “Venom,” helmed by Ruben Fleischer, and the 2021 sequel “Let There Be Carnage,” directed by Andy Serkis) earned a combined $1.3 billion at the box office.

“Venom: The Last Dance” is set to release on October 25, in premium large formats and IMAX.
