Venom: The Last Dance Final Trailer is difficult to digest, so here's a quick breakdown

Last week, we told you how the makers of Venom: The Last Dance, aka Venom 3, confirmed that they would release the final trailer of the film this Thursday. They shared this update with footage featuring the Symbiote and Tom Hardy as Eddie Brock. Fans were pumped and excited because many questions surround the film—this being the final installment in the solo franchise elevates the stakes considerably. The makers have now released the final trailer for Venom 3, and the world is buzzing with excitement and confusion, as it reveals some pivotal details. Let’s take a moment to break down the highlights from Venom: The Last Dance final trailer.

All the promotional content about Venom: The Last Dance so far featured vague edits that hinted at the story without revealing the plot. While many labeled them inconsequential, they were packed with subtle hints. When the makers announced the final trailer, fans knew something big was coming—and it delivered. The new trailer delves deeper into the Symbiote's existence and answers many questions about why they came to Earth. It also introduces a major multiversal villain and hints at Tom Hardy’s Eddie Brock possibly crossing over into the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU). Read on to discover everything you need to know.

Highlights From Venom: The Last Dance Final Trailer

Symbiotes Are Actually Running

One of the biggest questions comic nerds and fans of the films have had for the last two movies is: Why did the Symbiote come to Earth in the first place? The filmmakers never dropped any hints in the previous films, but in the third, they finally reveal the reason. The final trailer for Venom: The Last Dance shows that the Symbiotes are actually running away from someone—and that someone is none other than Knull, one of the most prominent multiversal villains. Yes, you read that right. Knull has arrived with his army, and now Eddie and Venom must save the world from him.

But Who Is Knull?

To give you an idea, Knull is a cosmic villain tied to the multiverse strategy that Sony shares with the MCU. Knull is described as an eldritch god of darkness and the creator of the Symbiotes. He was originally chosen by the Celestials to serve as the King in Black but instead killed a cosmic being using a Symbiote as a sword. Knull waged a war against the light and discovered that Symbiotes can bond with lesser creatures, giving him the idea to raise an army. Now that he’s awakened and on Earth, it will be interesting to see how the filmmakers choose to introduce him into the storyline.

Will Eddie Brock Defeat Knull?

While the trailer shows Eddie and Venom going separate ways to fight Knull, defeating him in one film would be a mistake given Knull’s immense multiversal power. Keeping Knull alive could also help connect Eddie Brock, aka Tom Hardy, to the MCU, which could finally bring Tom Holland’s Spider-Man closer to Sony’s Spider-Man Universe (SSU). Fans have been asking for this crossover for years.

Venom: The Last Dance is set to hit the big screen on October 25, 2024. Stay tuned to OTTplay for more information on this and everything else from the world of streaming and films.
