Venom: The Last Dance

Summary

Venom : The Last Dancehasn’t show any clear link to including a Spider - Man , but I ’m still optimistic that the moving-picture show may be in the end setting up a tie to Andrew Garfield’sAmazing Spider - Manuniverse . Sony ’s non - MCUSpider - Man universe has been funny since its inception . WhileSpider - Man has an iconic gallery of rogues , it ’s foreign to have a picture show universe featuring them without the Wall Crawler himself . It ’s even stranger , give that Sony owns the movie rights to Spider - Man , so there should n’t theoretically be anything stopping them . However , three movies into the SSU and with another out before long , Spidey is missing .

I have n’t lost promise , though . Madame Webkind of introduced a Spider - Man , with the birth of Peter Parker happening towards the end of the flick . Now , it ’s finally time forVenom : The Last Danceto clarify which Spider - Man is in this universe - and I ’m confident that it ’s going to be Andrew Garfield .

The last hint of Tom Hardy ’s Eddie Brock and Venom issue forth in a mid - credits shot in Spider - Man : No Way Home , and now they ’re both turn back for Venom 3 .

The Sony Spider-Man Universe Still Doesn’t Have An Official Spider-Man

Even thoughVenom , the first movie of the SSU , does n’t have any allusions to Spider - Man , I always cypher the franchise just wanted to take its clip and let the baddie shine for a bit before introducing a hero . WhenVenom : Let There Be Carnagecame out with no further clues , I became a mo more disbelieving , but I thought that maybe the Venom movies just were n’t the place for him . Morbiusactually featured Spider - Man graffitiin a trailer , and I was sure it was Parker ’s clip to shine . However , the persona was edit out of the existent pic , and Spider - Man was nowhere to be fancy .

EvenMadame Web , which features the nativity of Peter Parkerin 2003 , skirts the yield . Concept art expose that Tom Holland ’s Spider - Man was going to look , though it ’s not clear exactly how ( likely via the Multiverse ) . This leaves the franchise in a snatch of an awkward spot . Either Spider - Man simply is n’t Spider - Man yet , or there needs to be some serious explanation as to where he ’s been and why Venom seems to only tangentially recognize him when he ’s transported to the MCU for a brief Erolia minutilla .

Sony ’s Spider - Man Universe has had one glaring problem since 2018 , a problem made worse by Sony ’s acknowledgement of this and refusal to fix it .

One Venom 3 Casting Makes an Amazing Spider-Man Connection Possible

In the prevue forVenom : The Last Dance , a surprise casting is confirm . Rhys Ifan is shortly seen merrily strum a guitar in a vanguard that Eddie presumably catches a drive in after being teleport back home from the MCU in theSpider - Man : No style Homepost - credits tantrum . This seemingly creates a problem for Venom ’s universe being the same as Andrew Garfield ’s Spider - Man . Ifans play Curt Connors inThe Amazing Spider - Man , the scientist who becomes the mutate Lizard and set about to turn the people of NYC into reptilian as well . However , here , Ifans is clearly not a lizard and possesses the arm he ’s lack inTASM .

However , I think this might in reality make theASMconnection more likely , not less so , and the key isSpider - Man : No Way abode . At the end of Peter ’s last bouncy - action adventure , he manages to heal his villains and return them to their house worlds . As such , it ’s perfectly potential that Connors is healed of his reptilian condition ( and re - grows his branch ) and decides to step away from the sciences once he ’s home with a genuine 2d chance . Connor is presented as a generally just somebody who takes a number for the forged , and it make common sense that a multiverse adventure to put thing in view encourage him to tag felicity in the manikin of relaxation and music .

Rhys Ifans ' character inVenom : The Last Dancehas not been revealed , keeping speculation alive .

Why Andrew Garfield’s Spider-Man Makes The Most Sense For The SSU

Whether or not Rhys Ifans is playing a healed version of Curt Connors or not , Andrew Garfield ’s Spider - Man simply makes the most sense of the found Spider - People for the SSU - the other build choices being Tom Holland ’s or Tobey Maguire ’s versions of the paladin . Holland does n’t make gumption simply because it ’s been well - constitute that the MCU and SSU are different universes . Venom is pulled from his existence before landing in the MCU , and Vulture is pull from the MCU to the SSU . It would n’t be logically consistent to suddenly claim that they ’re one and the same .

Moreover , Maguire ’s Peter Parker already fought a completely different version of Venom . Though not particularly well receive , Spider - Man 3features a different Eddie Brock and Venom , so it would n’t make sense for the SSU to be his home existence , either . However , Andrew Garfield never add up across Venom , Morbius , or Kraven , and the visual esthetic of his films most closely mate the SSU . Time will tell if and when Spider - Man demonstrate up inVenom : The Last Danceor the all-encompassing SSU , but if he does , I ’m still optimistic that Garfield ’s Peter would be the most coherent and exciting choice .
