Tom Hardy's Venom is set to clash with Andrew Garfield's Peter Parker in a new fan trailer for The Amazing Spider-Man 3. Titled Venom: The Last Dance, the film is scheduled to hit theaters this fall, marking a significant milestone for Sony's Spider-Man Universe timeline. Eddie Brock, portrayed by Hardy, will become the first character to complete his own trilogy within this universe. However, the anticipated showdown between Venom and Spider-Man has yet to materialize, as the web-slinger is currently absent from the franchise.
Although The Amazing Spider-Man 3 was shelved almost ten years ago, there remains a dedicated fan base hopeful for its revival. The fan trailer by KH Studio envisions Garfield's Peter Parker encountering Hardy's Venom, possibly through multiverse interactions. The trailer creatively combines footage from various Spider-Man films, including those featuring Tobey Maguire and Tom Hardy's Venom movies.
While the future of The Amazing Spider-Man 3 remains uncertain, there are compelling reasons to reintroduce Garfield's Spider-Man into Sony's Spider-Man Universe. Following the disappointment of Madame Web, a recent Sony release that underperformed critically and commercially, the direction of the franchise has come into question. The absence of Spider-Man has been a notable factor contributing to this uncertainty.
Speculation has long suggested that Garfield's Spider-Man exists within the same universe as Sony's Spider-Man Universe, making him a pivotal character for the franchise's development. Introducing him could provide cohesion to the universe and potentially redefine its identity as the 'Sony Spider-Man Universe.'
If Sony Pictures opts to keep Spider-Man separate from its universe, the conclusion of Venom: The Last Dance could mark the end of the current storyline. However, incorporating Spider-Man into future projects could extend the narrative and establish a central antagonist for the villains introduced thus far. Whether through The Amazing Spider-Man 3 or another Marvel endeavor, fans eagerly anticipate Garfield's return as the iconic hero.
The Amazing Spider-Man 3 was intended as the third installment in Sony's second Spider-Man series. Despite initial setup in previous films, the project was scrapped, leading to a reboot featuring Tom Holland as Peter Parker in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Garfield's reprisal of the role in Spider-Man: No Way Home reignited interest in his portrayal of the beloved character.
