Venom 3: Tom Hardy returns as Eddie Brock! What’s next after Spider-Man: No Way Home?

• In Venom 3, Tom Hardy returns as reporter Eddie Brock.
• Filming will start soon, but nothing is known about the plot.
• The cliffhanger from the last film has already been resolved in “Spider-Man: No Way Home”.

With Spider-Man, Sony still has the movie rights to one of Marvel’s most popular characters, but attempts to dedicate movies to the Spidey villains have met with limited success. “Morbius,” starring Jared Leto, failed at the box office and became a laughing stock online, but “Venom,” starring Tom Hardy, was a surprise hit.

Things didn’t go quite so well for the sequel “Venom: Let there be Carnage”, but Sony was satisfied with the result here too and unceremoniously confirmed a third film that is currently in pre-production, as the main actor Tom Hardy confirmed on Instagram.

So far, however, it is not known how the story will continue in “Venom 3”. One of the reasons for this is that the cliffhanger in the end credits of “Venom: Let there be Carnage”, which sent Eddie and Venom into the universe of the Spider-Man films, was directly undone in “Spider-Man: No Way Home”. .

For a moment, Venom seemed to be after Peter Parker, when Doctor Strange sent all the visitors from the multiverse back to their own universes. The duel between Venom and Spider-Man that Marvel fans have been hoping for will hardly await us in “Venom 3”.

Venom may meet Sergei Kraffinov, aka Kraven the Hunter, in the new film. In October 2023 the movie “Kraven the Hunter” will be released in cinemas, starring Aaron Taylor-Johnson, another movie about a Spider-Man villain who has to do without Spider-Man.

So Kraven will already be an established character by the time Venom 3 hits theaters, and Taylor-Johnson has already signed on for more Sony Marvel movies. Once Venom 3 starts filming and the first set pictures emerge, we may know more about who Eddie Brock will face off in theaters in 2024.
