With the release of Venom: The Last Dance on October 25, there are questions about whether this will mark the end of the beloved symbiote’s appearances in cinema.
What’s next for Tom Hardy and Venom?
During the New York Comic Con, Tom Hardy took the stage to discuss his memorable journey as the character.
He shared insights about his seven-year experience portraying Eddie Brock, noting it as one of the highlights of his career.
However, this reflection carried a tone of farewell.
Hardy remarked, “It’s time to go to sleep,” suggesting that his tenure with Venom may be nearing its conclusion.
While he expressed affection for the role, he indicated that this chapter might be closing, which disappointed fans who have followed his adventures with the symbiote.
In addition to acting, Hardy was also involved in writing the screenplay.
He collaborated with director Kelly Marcel, who leads The Last Dance, ensuring that the narrative delves deeply into Venom’s character and its comic book origins.
Is Venom 3 the conclusion of the series?
This film is particularly meaningful to Marcel as well.
Having been part of the Venom series since its inception, she is excited to direct this concluding chapter.
The Last Dance aims to finalize the narrative of Eddie and Venom, effectively wrapping up the trilogy.
Yet, she suggested that the universe of symbiotes is large, hinting at the possibility of other characters being explored in future films.
Despite Hardy’s hints of moving on, he left some hope for a cameo, especially in the context of a Spider-Man crossover.
While Venom: The Last Dance brings closure to Eddie and Venom’s storyline, the potential for a future encounter with Spider-Man keeps anticipation alive.
So, will Venom: The Last Dance truly be the final film?
For Hardy’s rendition of Eddie Brock, it seems like it will be—for now.
However, given the wide-reaching scope of symbiote tales and Hardy’s openness to future projects, there may still be more to unfold.
Fans should stay tuned for updates in this dynamic cinematic universe.
