The Sony Pictures Universe of Spider-Man Characters is set to conclude later this year with the release of Venom: The Last Dance, marking the end of the Venom trilogy and the complex relationship between Eddie Brock and his symbiotic counterpart.
The film’s trailer has generated significant excitement, showcasing an intense and extravagant spectacle that promises to push the boundaries of the franchise. Although the Venom films have not been critical darlings, they have enjoyed substantial popularity among fans, making the end of this series a bittersweet moment.
Adding to the buzz, a new rumor suggests that Tom Holland’s Spider-Man may make an appearance in Venom: The Last Dance. Holland could reprise his role as Peter Parker, although details on how this might occur remain unclear. This speculation follows the previous Venom film, which hinted at Spider-Man, suggesting a potential crossover.
Such a crossover would be a notable development, given that Holland’s Spider-Man is part of the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU), while Venom operates within a separate Sony-controlled universe. Since Sony and Marvel Studios struck a deal in 2016, Spider-Man has been able to appear in MCU films, but the Sony Spider-Verse has yet to include the iconic superhero directly.
The potential appearance of Spider-Man in Venom’s final film would be a significant event, considering the franchises have already shown some connectivity. For instance, Venom: Let There Be Carnage included a post-credits scene alluding to Spider-Man, while Spider-Man: No Way Home featured a brief cameo by Tom Hardy’s Venom in the MCU, leaving behind a fragment of the symbiote.
The MCU’s Multiverse Saga has expanded possibilities for such crossovers, and while Hardy’s brief MCU appearance was more of a fan service, it opened doors for further interactions. Venom: The Last Dance is expected to echo elements from the post-credits scene of No Way Home, possibly setting the stage for a significant crossover.
With plans for a new Spider-Man trilogy within the MCU, it is plausible that Holland’s Spider-Man could make a cameo in Sony’s universe, providing a reminder of the interconnectedness between the two franchises.
Previously, there were rumors about Andrew Garfield’s Spider-Man appearing in the Sony universe, but given the MCU’s influence, Holland’s involvement would be more feasible. Interestingly, Michael Keaton, who played the Vulture in Spider-Man: Homecoming, appeared in a post-credits scene of Morbius, highlighting the complexity of integrating characters across universes.
A cameo by Tom Holland in Venom: The Last Dance would make narrative sense and offer an epic moment for fans, marking a memorable end to the Venom series with a potential crossover that fans have long anticipated.
