Summary
New fan art promotingVenom: The Last Danceimagines Spider-Man riding the Venom horse seen in the upcoming Sony Spider-Man Universe movie’s first trailer. The June 2024trailer forVenom: The Last Dancehas teased an action-packed story for Tom Hardy’s final solo movie as Eddie Brock, pitting Venom against human and alien villains alike. The jam-packed plot ofThe Last Dancemeans it’s unlikely that Spider-Man will appear in the movie, though there may be an opportunity for Venom to cross over into theMCUafter his upcoming adventure.
One of the many twists inVenom: The Last Dance’strailer saw Venom bond with a non-human host, gifting a horse all the powers of the alien symbiote. This scene has been reimagined in new art shared bywens.1998, which adds a black-suited Spider-Man into the mix to create a striking moment that encapsulates the seemingly untapped potential of including the Marvel hero in the movie series.
Spider-Man was speculated to appear inVenom: The Last Danceduring the movie’s early development stages, but it seems this is unlikely to come to fruition. Even so, there is still a chance thatVenom and Spider-Mancould come to blows, should the symbiote find himself back in the MCU proper - though it’s decidedly unlikely a prospective battle would see the webslinger meet a venomized horse.
When Could Spider-Man & Venom Battle In The MCU?
Spider-Man: No Way Home’smid-credits scene saw Eddie Brock leave a piece of the Venom symbiote in the MCUupon his return to his home reality. The moment provided a great jumping-off point for Venom to join Marvel Studios' franchise on a permanent basis, and may have teased Venom’s involvement in theMCU’s upcomingSpider-Man 4. This could see Tom Holland’s Spider-Man receive his iconic black costume from Marvel Comics, enhancing him with new abilities in the lead up toAvengers: Secret Wars.
10 Ways Tom Holland’s Spider-Man 4 Could Be A “Significant Event” For The MCU
Tom Holland’s Spider-Man 4 has received an exciting update, and there are some great stories to make the MCU movie the event it is teased to be.
Spider-Man first received his black symbiote costume during Marvel Comics’Secret Warsevent in 1984, so the MCU’s adaptation ofSecret Warswould be a fantastic opportunity to show off this alien upgrade.If Holland’s Peter Parker uses the Venom suit to his benefit inSpider-Man 4andAvengers: Secret Wars, a battle between the legendary adversaries might not take place untilSpider-Man 5or beyond. Since Holland is returning for anew trilogy ofSpider-Manmovies, this battle could even end in his departure from the role, allowing a new Spider-Man to take his place.
Venom: The Last Dance’strailer has caused confusion about Venom’s existence in the MCU, as Chiwetel Ejiofor’s character appears to be capturing the piece of the symbiote left afterNo Way Home. However, this could ultimately turn out to be a ruse, perhaps taking place in the SSU itself, meaning this piece of Venom still remains intact. If Eddie Brock or Venom lose their lives inVenom: The Last Dance, as is suspected, Venom could make the move to the MCU using this symbiote remnant, setting him up to face Spider-Man very soon.
