Released in 2018, Venom’s first opus was a hit, grossing $856 million worldwide on a $100 million budget. The film, which stars Tom Hardy as Spider-Man’s super-enemy, has been granted a sequel in 2021: Let There Be Carnage.
This second episode brought in 506 million greenbacks internationally for a budget of 110 million. If it performed less well than the previous opus (the Covid pandemic partially explains this lower figure than the first), the combination of these two works increases the number of earnings to 1.36 billion.
This jackpot convinced Sony Pictures and Marvel to begin work on a third feature film to complete the trilogy centered around this legendary supervillain.
When is VENOM 3 coming out?
When the writers’ and actors’ strike ended a month ago, Venom 3’s release date was pushed back. The feature film scheduled for July 10, 2024 has been pushed back to November 6, 2024. Filming began in Spain at the end of June 2023.
On the evening of July 13, when the strike began, which paralyzed Hollywood for several months, production came to a halt. Work resumed as soon as the strike ended with the apparent enthusiasm of Tom Hardy, As he posted on Instagram Last November 16.
What casting for VENOM 3?
Obviously, Tom Hardy is back as Venom, as is Eddie Brock. Juno Temple and Chiwetel Ejiofor were also announced in the cast.
Who is directing VENOM 3?
After Ruben Fleischer and Andy Serkis, it’s Kelly Marcel’s turn in episode 3. He wrote the first two opus and also wrote the screenplay for Venom 3 with Tom Hardy.
VENOM 3, what will it say?
At this time, we have absolutely no information regarding the plot of this part 3, except that it will definitely be the last for Tom Hardy. On June 16, the actor said that this sequel could be his last appearance as the Marvel anti-hero. The actor also wrote the first page of the script on Instagram.
However, he did not specifically indicate that this was the plot of the third part, a small drawing on the document: a black face with large diagonal eyes, a toothy mouth and a long red tongue ending in 3.
We also see mentions of ‘Kelly Marcel and Tom Hardy’s story’ and ‘Written by Kelly Marcel’, which obviously spilled the beans. Later, he shared the same photo, this time in a story, mentioning Sony Pictures alongside the words “Here we go” and a GIF that says “LAST DANCE.”
On November 24th, Tom Hardy mentioned this famous “last dance” once again while discussing the resumption of filming for Venom 3. “The last dance. Fortunately, we’re back on set and I want to take a moment to thank everyone. The teams. We’ve come a long way. It feels like we’re not working on this shoot,” he said.
“Working with talented and passionate technicians and being surrounded by people you love and care about, there’s nothing better in life! I just want to take a moment to say how proud I am of my director, writing partner and dear friend Kelly Marcel. Controlling Venom fills me with pride, it’s an honor. Trust your instincts, It will always be there. Here’s to a great journey!”he continued.
Will there be Spider-Man?
That’s the big unknown surrounding Venom’s 3rd opus. Will Spider-Man come and greet his best enemy? Everything is possible! Knowing that this episode could be the last of the series, it’s not out of the question that Weaver will come and put his grain of sand in Eddie Brock’s life. We especially remember Venom’s notable transition into Spidey’s world at the end of No Way Home.
Note that there are two other Spider-Man movies coming out before Venom 3. Madame Web with Dakota Johnson will be released on February 14, 2024; As for Kraven the Hunter, directed by Aaron Taylor-Johnson, it will hit theaters on August 28, 2024.
