Explosive Showdown Unleashed: Venom 3 Trailer Unites Venom, Vulture, Carnage & Scorpion

Summary

A fan trailer imagines an ambitious Venom 3 crossover, bringing together Venom, Vulture, Scorpion, Carnage, and Spider-Man.

The crossover is set to build on the previous MCU and Sony Spider-Man Universe developments. It will showcase significant roles for Vulture and Scorpion, the return of Carnage, and the highly-anticipated meeting of Venom and Spider-Man.

Scheduled for release in 2024, Venom 3 will see the return of Tom Hardy as the lead, while Kelly Marcel takes the helm for her directorial debut. Though the plot details are being kept under wraps, potential storylines may involve Patrick Mulligan's symbiote or the introduction of a new non-symbiote villain.

A new fan trailer for Venom 3 showcases a live-action Marvel crossover, featuring four Spider-Man villains. Following the success of two solo movies in Sony's Spider-Man Universe, the demand for a crossover story involving Tom Hardy's Eddie Brock and Venom has become apparent. Venom frequently interacts with both heroes like Spider-Man and other non-symbiote villains. The ending of Venom: Let There Be Carnage also sets up a cliffhanger for the sequel, hinting at a showdown between Venom and another formidable symbiote.

As excitement for Sony's upcoming Venom 3 continues to build, fans have taken it upon themselves to envision a spectacular conclusion for Venom's live-action trilogy. Video editor and Marvel enthusiast Stryker HD has released a fan trailer for Venom 3, bringing together Tom Hardy's Venom, Michael Keaton's Vulture, Michael Mando's Scorpion, Carnage, and an unexpected addition: Tom Holland's Spider-Man joining forces with Venom 3. Watch the fan trailer below.

The inclusion of these characters in Venom 3 by Sony would serve as a successful culmination of previous storylines established in both Sony's Spider-Man Universe and the MCU. By integrating Michael Keaton's Vulture into Sony's Spider-Man Universe, tying in Mac Gargan's revenge plot from Spider-Man: Homecoming's post-credits scene, and allowing Venom to finally meet Tom Holland's Spider-Man as teased in Venom: Let There Be Carnage's post-credits scene, Venom 3 would bring together various narrative threads. Additionally, it would present Carnage with another opportunity to shine, despite his apparent demise in Venom: Let There Be Carnage.

What We Know About Venom 3 So Far

Since the release of the first movie in 2018, it has been confirmed that there will be a Venom trilogy in Sony's Spider-Man Universe, with Tom Hardy as the lead actor. However, it was officially announced at CinemaCon 2022 that Venom 3 is in the works. More information about Venom 3 was revealed a few months later by Tom Hardy himself in an Instagram post, confirming that the movie is currently in pre-production. While the original release date for Venom 3 was July 11, 2024, it is likely that the movie will be delayed due to shifts in Sony's schedule and delays caused by the 2023 SAG-AFTRA strikes.

Joining Tom Hardy in the cast of Venom 3 are actors Juno Temple and Chiwetel Ejiofor. While Ejiofor has already appeared in the MCU as Doctor Strange's enemy Karl Mordo, it is expected that he will be playing a new character in Sony's Spider-Man Universe. The cliffhanger in Venom: Let There Be Carnage hinted at Stephen Graham's Patrick Mulligan potentially having a role in Venom 3, as he was shown seemingly absorbing a symbiote. Although it is unclear whether he will be the main villain or have a supporting role. Venom: Let There Be Carnage director Andy Serkis will not be returning for Venom 3. Instead, Kelly Marcel, the writer of Venom and Venom: Let There Be Carnage, will be making her directorial debut with the sequel.

The plot of Venom 3 remains a mystery. It could either focus on Patrick Mulligan's symbiote or deviate from the previous two movies by introducing a non-symbiote villain. There is a possibility of cameo appearances or supporting roles from other characters in the Sony Spider-Man Universe, like Morbius, Kraven, or Vulture. While a crossover with Tom Holland's Spider-Man in the MCU is unlikely, it is still something worth considering. Although fan trailers have set high expectations, Venom 3 is not expected to be as overcrowded, but it will be the most ambitious film in the trilogy.
