Venom 2 let there be carnage11/9/2023 ![]() ![]() Unless, of course, events are put into motion that lead to Sony’s Marvel Universe getting its own Spider-Man. Meanwhile, Tom Hardy’s Venom gets to keep leading his own film series in a different universe without Spider-Man factoring into his life anymore. Boom, a new Venom is on the cinematic table! Peter Parker bonds with the symbiote, wears the black suit for a time, eventually gets it off of himself and then the symbiote bonds with someone else, be it this universe’s Eddie Brock, Flash Thompson or a different character. With that one move, the foundation has been established for the MCU to eventually deliver its own Venom. However, the fact that a piece of the Venom symbiote was left behind in the MCU has me thinking Marvel and Sony want the best of both worlds. It’s easy enough to craft a scenario where Peter is pulled into this other reality and then either fights Venom the whole time or just scuffles with him briefly, followed by the two of them teaming up to deal with a bigger threat. The events of Loki paved the way for the multiverse to start affecting the MCU, and I suspect that whatever goes down Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness will weaken those barriers further. On the one hand, if something happened that allowed for Spider-Man villains to be thrown into MCU, why couldn’t Tom Holland’s Peter Parker be pulled into Sony’s Marvel Universe through some bizarre event. That's definitely still possible, but it doesn’t feel like quite as sure a thing anymore. Naturally after seeing Let There Be Carnage’s mid-credits scene, a lot of people thought the pieces had been put into place for a Spider-Man/Venom crossover, whether it happened in Venom 3 or a fourth MCU-set Spider-Man movie. Hardy is certainly game for that to happen, and Venom: Let There Be Carnage director Andy Serkis thinks such a crossover is inevitable.

Assuming that’s the case, we may be in store for the MCU’s take on the Alien Costume Saga, if more Tom Holland-led Spider-Man movies are indeed on the horizon. Because Spider-Man was the last thing Venom thought about in the MCU before being forceful ejected, perhaps that miniature symbiote that will surely grow in size will feel compelled to find the web-spinning superhero. While it’s unclear if the symbiote piece retains the full intelligence of its full form, at the very least, it’s moving and possesses certain instincts. ![]() ![]() Tom Hardy’s Venom is no longer in the MCU, but a piece of the symbiote was left behind in that bar. So that’s the end of this particular story, right? Not quite. But right after they decided to track down Spider-Man in New York, the duo was transported back to their universe by Doctor Strange’s second spell. (Image credit: Sony Pictures) How Tom Hardy’s Venom And Tom Holland’s Spider-Man Are Now ConnectedĪfter learning about the MCU’s superhumans, Thanos, who snapped away half of all life disappear in the universe for five years, Eddie Brock and the Venom symbiote floated the idea of protecting the people of this reality. Ok, everyone caught up to speed? Good, let’s get going, starting with a peculiar plot inconsistency this cameo presented. But before going further, be sure to read through our piece detailing what happened in No Way Home’s end-credits scenes. We’re here to talk about the broader implications this cameo has for both the Spider-Man and Venom film series. Spider-Man: No Way Home is now playing in theaters, and following the conclusion of its main story, Tom Hardy’s Venom cameoed as a byproduct of the movie’s multiversal shenanigans. ![]() Well, it turns out that we didn’t have to wait until Venom 3 to have this plot twist resolved that’s already happened! While the sequel’s main story wrapped up nicely with Venom defeating Woody Harrelson’s Cletus Kasady/Carnage, we left off on a weird note with our main protagonists being transported to the MCU and learning about Tom Holland’s Spider-Man. Just a few months ago, moviegoing audiences reunite with Tom Hardy’s Eddie Brock his symbiote partner in Venom: Let There Be Carnage. ![]()
