In a recent Instagram post hyping up Venom: The Last Dance, Tom Hardy got all emotional about his journey as Venom. He pretty much dropped the bomb in the form of comment that this will be his last ride as the iconic character. Like, can we take a moment to appreciate how much he loved playing this role? Check out his full comment below: 

That’s all she wrote for me and the big guy we promise to make this the best of them all. We’ve loved making these. Thankyou for your and support – come join us for the Last Dance. For those of you that enjoy a good time from all of us in the team – Let us entertain you.

Okay, so let’s break this down! Hardy’s farewell might sound final, but does it really mean he’s done? Since his first Venom movie dropped in 2018, the actor has been the shining star of Sony’s Spider-Man Universe.

But it’s been a wild ride with mixed reviews on his films. While the Venom flicks weren’t everyone’s cup of tea, they did manage to snag a loyal fanbase. Hardy’s latest movie, Venom: The Last Dance, promises to kick things up a notch, especially with Knull as the villain.

While Venom has been a major success, the tagline “Til Death Do They Part” suggests that the narrative is coming to a close. Oof! That’s heavy! Does this also mean we might not see him in Spider-Man 4?

Sony’s Spider-Man Universe might be losing its best character, but Hardy’s legacy as Venom is strong. The Last Dance could set the stage for what’s next, maybe a whole new saga or a fresh beginning.

But Insiders Say Venom Might Be in Spider-Man 4—What Next?

Alright, don’t take your tissues yet. Despite Tom Hardy’s apparent exit, some insiders are buzzing about Venom potentially appearing in Spider-Man 4. The Venom: The Last Dance trailer teased Knull as the main villain, and if he’s a multiversal threat, that could open the door for a team-up with Tom Holland’s Spidey!

Fans thought Norman Reedus or Topher Grace might play Knull in Venom 3, but a reliable source, MyTimeToShineHello, said that isn’t true. She mentioned people will be excited about the new villain but didn’t reveal who it is.

Just to note, Topher Grace played Eddie/Venom in the version of the MCU with Tobey Maguire as Spider-Man. Then according to insider Daniel Richtman, Andy Serkis is the one who might take on the role of Venom in the upcoming film.

Sony and Marvel have a knack for connecting their films, just like peanut butter and jelly. And fans already know that part of the Venom symbiote is chilling in the MCU after No Way Home.

So, if Eddie doesn’t swing into Spider-Man 4, the symbiote might still make an appearance. There’s also the possibility of Knull causing chaos in Spidey’s world, making this connection even more plausible.

While some might think Hardy’s statement spells doom for Venom’s future, others are holding onto hope. They believe it’s more like a ‘see you later’ situation. With the multiverse saga heating up, anything can happen.

Venom: The Last Dance is set to hit theaters on October 25, 2024.
