Sony Pictures plans to bring the largest year to date to the Sony Spider-Man universe in 2024, in which Venom 3 will be the third film in the series and the last to be released in theaters.
Back in April 2022, the film received permission to be produced. Fans are eagerly awaiting more information about the finale of Sony's first Spider-Man-related trilogy, including what title it will eventually take.
So is the online rumor "Venom: Spider Arrival" real?Multiple promotional materials have hinted at Sony Pictures' upcoming Venom 3 that will feature the title Venom: Spider Arrival. A poster went viral on the internet showing Tom Hardy's Venom high in the air, strangling Spider-Man's throat with his hand, apparently Andrew Garfield's Spider-Man in The Amazing Spider-Man 2, as his costume matches it. In addition, there are various trailers, and many fans believe that this is the real Venom 3 trailer.
However, these posters and trailers are fake. The trailer, in particular, uses footage almost entirely from Tom Hardy's first two Venom films and Tom Holland's original MCU Spider-Man trilogy.
Still, many expected that the MCU and Sony's Spider-Man universe would finally connect in some way when Venom 3 premiered. A segment** filmed from the Venom 3 set before the actors' strike shows Hardy wearing the same T-shirt he wore in the end credits of Spider-Man: No Way Home. This is the largest portion of the evidence that has been made public so far, suggesting that the new Venom movie may be connected to Spider-Man in some way, although specific plot details about the film have not yet been confirmed.
So what happens with Venom 3?Although Sony hasn't revealed specific plot details for Venom 3 (other than Tom Hardy confirming that it will be the last film), many are hoping that Spider-Man will finally be able to appear in the same movie as one of his most iconic enemies. Some have suggested that Garfield's The Amazing Spider-Man might have a chance to make an appearance in this universe, especially with so much talk about The Amazing Spider-Man 3. There's also his line "I want to fight a war with aliens" in Spider-Man: No Way Home, which could lead Sony to involve Garfield in one final adventure again.
In addition, fans created an impressive artwork depicting Tom Holland wearing his own black symbiote suit, imagining what would happen if Holland's Peter Parker found himself interacting with powerful aliens. 2023's Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse also hints that Spider-Man's encounter with Venom could be an "orthodox event", meaning that according to the rules of the multiverse, the encounter between the two in Venom 3 is inevitable.
But with so much time left before Venom 3 is released, and so many movies to be made after the writers' and actors' strike, only time will tell how or when these two fan-favorite characters of superheroes will face each other. "Venom 3" was originally scheduled to be released on November 8, 2024. Let's look forward to more related news!Autumn and Winter Check-in Challenge
