Tom Hardy seemingly sets the record straight on his future with Eddie Brock afterVenom: The Last Danceas theMarveltrilogy comes to an end this fall. When it comes toSony’s Spider-Man Universe, the franchise has been one of the odder additions to the superhero movie genre, as the web-slinger has yet to appear in any of the interconnected films. However, one of the highlights of this Marvel franchise is the Venom movie series, which is returning this fall withtheVenom: The Last Dancerelease.
In a recent social media post promotingVenom: The Last Dance,Hardyadded in his comments with a heartfelt statement about his time with theVenomfranchise. While thanking the fans for their support of theVenomtrilogy, Hardy seemingly confirms thatVenom: The Last Dancewill be his final time playing the popular Marvel character, as he stated the following:
That’s all she wrote for me and the big guywe 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
Prior to these comments, Hardy hadn’t stated one way or the other ifVenom: The Last Dancewould be his final time portraying Eddie. But with Hardy’s statement,this marks the end of an era as the British star was the one to kick off Sony’s Spider-Man Universe back in 2018 with the firstVenomfilm.
What Tom Hardy’s Comment Means For His Venom Future
While time will tell ifVenom: The Last Dancewill be thebestVenommoviein the trilogy, Hardy’s comments are bittersweet. Since the firstVenomfilm, the actor has shown his dedication to these characters, even going as far as getting more involved - to the point thatHardy has a “story by” credit onVenom: The Last Dance. Even though there have been mixed reactions toVenomandVenom: Let There Be Carnage, Hardy’s movies have at least been more favored by audiences overMadame WebandMorbius.

As Hardy finishes his era playing Venom,Sony’s Spider-Man Universe is definitely losing its strongest asset going forward, especially if he doesn’t appear in future films tied to the franchise. That’s why havingKnull inVenom. The Last Danceis an even bigger deal, as it gives Venom one massive final villain to deal with before the trilogy ends. For this reason, there’s speculation Eddie and/or Venom could die in the movie. But, if not, there’s always the possibility for Hardy to reprise the role after The Last Dance - inAvengers: Secret Wars,perhaps.
Our Take On Tom Hardy’s Venom Future
Hardy’s Venom is the strongest and most stable character that has existed in Sony’s Spider-Man Universe, which is why it’s definitely sad to see his Marvel franchise come to an end. Beyond that, it’s unclear what will happen toSony’s Spider-Man UniverseafterKraven the Hunteris released in December, since no further movies have been announced. With that in mind,Venom: The Last Dancemay be even more crucial to Sony’s Spider-Man Universe than ever, as it could mark the beginning of the end for this series of Marvel films - or the beginning of the next phase, one that deals with Knull.
