Venom the Last Dance: New Trailer Teases MCU Payoff

Venom the Last Dance: New Trailer Teases MCU Payoff

As a longtime comic book enthusiast who has witnessed the evolution of the Marvel Cinematic Universe, I am beyond excited about the direction these latest developments are taking! The prospect of Venom: The Last Dance potentially resolving a plot thread within the MCU and setting up a highly-anticipated showdown between Eddie Brock, Knull, and Spider-Man has me on the edge of my seat.


The recent sneak peek from “Venom: The Final Showdown” suggests that this Sony Marvel film could tie up a significant storyline within the MCU. With Tom Hardy reprising his role as Venom and potentially setting the stage for a long-awaited battle with Spider-Man, the trailer hints at the involvement of both human characters in the Sony Marvel universe and a symbiote deity named Knull. If Knull manages to capture Eddie Brock’s close friend, it could spell doom for his world. However, an interesting twist may arise as not all of Venom exists within that reality.

2021’s “Spider-Man: No Way Home” ended with Peter Parker standing alone after losing his friends. Tom Holland’s Spider-Man is facing a significant sense of isolation, as the Venom symbiote continues to roam the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU), searching for him since it had connections with other Peter Parkers in various universes. This impending encounter promises a confrontation not only with Eddie Brock but also Knull. If the villain manages to prevail at the end of the upcoming Venom film, he will aim to seize control over the remaining symbiote to dominate every reality it encounters.

Spider-Man 4 Director Announcement Comes Into Focus

Recently, it was announced that Dustin Daniel Cretton has been selected as director for what will be known as “Spider-Man 4”. Tom Holland will reprise his role as Peter Parker in this upcoming Marvel film. The choice of a director who is also working on “Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings” and “Naruto” projects scheduled up to 2025 may seem peculiar, but given that Knull might be the primary antagonist for the movie, it seems Spider-Man might require assistance.

Introducing Shang-Chi and Captain Marvel at a critical juncture for the protagonist would delight fans who have been eager to see these heroes interact. Moreover, this encounter could pave the way for future multiverse threats to be recognized by the Avengers before the events of “Avengers: Doomsday” and “Secret Wars.” Most significantly, it initiates the black suit storyline that will culminate in “Secret Wars,” where Reed Richards assists Spider-Man in restoring his original costume.

It appears that a widely shared tweet by Alex Perez on My Cosmic Circus suggests Knull might not be a one-time antagonist for Sony’s projects, hinting at possible future appearances. If this is true and Knull abducts Symbiotes across universes, it could potentially bring Tobey Maguire and Andrew Garfield’s Spider-Man versions back into action. An early encounter with extraterrestrial beings for the Peter Parker of universe 3 might even risk the destruction of his world!

Spider-Man 4 Tapping Into The Multiverse Again

Without stirring up past fan disputes, these recent advancements seem to suggest that Sony has embraced the concept of “Spider-Man 4” as a multiverse storyline. Given Knull’s significant role in comics, he could potentially pose an “Avengers-worthy” threat, making it plausible for various Spider-Men and other MCU heroes to be summoned. Moreover, anticipate a cinematic scale never before seen in Marvel films with Robert Downey Jr.’s Doctor Doom playing a mysterious role.

For over a while now, there has been an abundance of Marvel movies, leaving many online viewers wondering where the Avengers have disappeared to. Contrary to what some might speculate about Daredevil’s street-level battles against Kingpin, this isn’t the scenario we’re considering. (Although it’s a common theory for Spider-Man 4 fans, the situation remains unclear regarding future plans.) Instead, let’s envision a thrilling confrontation where all the Avengers are prepared to face off during future crises.

Furthermore, the thrilling post-credits scene in “Spider-Man: No Way Home” is poised to unfold in an extraordinary manner, effectively resolving that suspenseful cliffhanger. Fans eagerly anticipating a showdown between Spider-Man and Venom may find themselves edging closer to their dream than they ever imagined. Tom Hardy, who plays Venom, has been vocal about his desire for this encounter, and with the multiverse now open, it appears the symbiote suit saga is set for an exciting twist.
