As a long-time comic book enthusiast who grew up watching Spider-Man on Saturday mornings and marveling at the dark, brooding intensity of Bane in “The Dark Knight Rises,” I can wholeheartedly say that Tom Hardy’s portrayal of Venom has been nothing short of a revelation. His raw energy and commitment to the character have breathed life into the symbiote anti-hero, making him a standout in the ever-expanding universe of superheroes on the big screen.
Despite Tom Hardy making a significant impact as Bane in “The Dark Knight Rises,” he has since gained more recognition for his portrayal of Eddie Brock, also known as Venom, a renowned master roaster. His debut as the beloved Spider-Man character in 2018 marked the beginning of Sony’s Spider-Man Universe. Now, this phase of his career is drawing to a close. Expressing gratitude to Venom fans for their unwavering support, the actor has confirmed that “Venom: The Last Dance,” scheduled for release later this month in 2024, will be his final appearance as the symbiote-powered antihero.
Hardy shared this information as a comment under an Instagram post from the official Venom page advertising the soon-to-arrive threequel. He wrote:
Here’s our final act, and we assure you it will be extraordinary! We’ve genuinely enjoyed every moment of creating these, and your love and encouragement have meant everything to us. If you’re up for one last hurrah, come join us for this grand finale. For all those who appreciate a good time with our team, let us provide the entertainment you desire!
That amount may not be on the same level as how many times various actors in the Marvel Cinematic Universe and the recently-concluded DC Extended Universe appeared in their respective franchises, three movies is still a healthy run for Tom Hardy playing Venom. Actually, it’s four considering that Eddie Brock and the Venom symbiote also cameoed at the end of Spider-Man: No Way Home, which followed up on where these two were left off in the Venom: Let There Be Carnage end-credits scene. But soon we’ll be bidding adieu to this take on Venom, who was previously played by Topher Grace in Spider-Man 3.
Despite the fact that the Venom films haven’t received high praise from professional critics, they’ve certainly garnered a dedicated fanbase, as shown by the fact that Venom and Venom: Let There Be Carnage each grossed over 856 million and nearly $507 million globally. The success of Venom: The Last Dance is yet to be determined, but Tom Hardy’s gratitude to those who contributed to these movies’ box office dominance is certainly in order. If Sony’s Spider-Man Universe continues beyond Kraven the Hunter, which is set for release in December, it will feel strange not having Venom as a part of the series anymore.
Venom: The Final Stand
By all means, visit your local cinema from October 25 to catch the film “Venom: The Last Dance“. Even though “Venom: Let There Be Carnage” is available on various streaming platforms now, the initial movie can be viewed with a Disney+ subscription.
